Has any one successfully installed a turbo boost gauge in there ST, if so how....
Sekred is your ST stock, if so what is it boosting?I have fitted a boost gauge and mounted it in the centre console area. I knew it would be difficult to see in this area without taking your eyes off the road but I did not want to drill holes and stick things to the A pillar. After using it for awhile in this position it has proved a pain in the butt to monitor boost pressure, so I will probably remount it somewhere in the A Pillar area.

The boost varies at WOT. Another reason I need to move the gauge so I can monitor what happening. The maximum is around 21psi.Sekred is your ST stock, if so what is it boosting?
Moved it onto the door panel. Easier to see now. Pain in the butt to mount it where I did though.I agree that down there it's a bit awkward to look at the boost guage. If I'm feeling particularly adventurous one day I may look at mounting one in the circular air vent by the steering wheel to make it nice and neat. On the plus side - will never need to worry about the guage getting hot because the back of it will always be icy cold!![]()
did you try a mounting cup on the tiny window to the right of your dash?Moved it onto the door panel. Easier to see now. Pain in the butt to mount it where I did though.
The 2014 fiesta st's turbo boosts up to 21psi for up to 20 seconds at a time and then cuts it back to 12psi due to a electronic boost controlSekred is your ST stock, if so what is it boosting?
No, but that's a option. I wanted to hide the boost hose and wires.did you try a mounting cup on the tiny window to the right of your dash?
