Question TT turbo gauge

I notice some 993 tt euro models do not came with OBD display on the RPM gauge. How did they read the turbo boost?

Really? Do you have a picture or a link to a 993 Turbo without OBC?

Check www.mobile.de and you can see some cars without display at the tachometer.

OK Corte, on that URL what the heck are we looking for, and in what language.... I don't even speak UK. Lorries? What the heck is that?? Think my friend is married to one though... She gets terrible mileage.

That's a tedious site to navigate and it returned 63 cars between 96 and 98 over 50K Euros, but I couldn't find an example ... can you post a link ... I'm always curious about differences that Porsche puts in the same car between different regions. It must have cost them a fortune to run their business in the 90's with so many types, so many models, so many unique parts and then have almost every car built to some unique configuration when all they really needed to do was print the owner manual in a different language (and that's the one thing no auto maker ever seems to bother to do properly...)
Please post a couple of links to cars you're looking at without the OBC.

Cheers,

I've looked at a number of Euro 993TTs in Hong Kong and have yet to see one without the OBC display.

Sorry for the bad info guys!!! I contact some people in Europe asking about and those cars had a TTP upgrade that used an external turbo gauge, not shown on pictures. Again, SORRY!!!
