Default It's here. It's here. OH MAN IT'S FINALLY HERE!
Got this from the "Ebay guy" that showed up when I was trying to get a group buy going with NHS. Romuald rce.kowalik@t-online.de is a heck of a nice guy. The gauge was perfect in every way. The color match to the silver is exact.

The mounting was fairly straight forward and I followed Christian's guidance for laying the tubing which can be found in the original GB thread.

As for operation, it is a busy gauge. It is a suction as well as boost gauge, so every time you move the accelerator, the needle moves. It would have sucked to spend so much money and just have it lay there.

I am one VERY pleased customer. Any queries on price etc. should go through Romuald.

Fairley fun project and easy 3 out of 10, but does require patience and planning.

Eric! How much have you spent on that Bad Boy? You have to have the most expensive 993 on Renn

Did you get a quote directly from Romuald?

My "bad boy" only cost around $80 (for the boost gauge & a-pillar mounted gauge pod). I assume that's what you're referring to.

Isn't Romuald's price like $650, or $800 with white faces?
