i really like this.... and I don't want to bash at all because its a cool solution, but ultimately I think I'd only be interested if the digital display was a higher resolution (like the radio/thermostat/perf wheel) screens are. I think at that point it would be a perfect OEM blend. I'd happily pay a premium for that kind of display. That of course is just me....

Keep up the good work, looks like there is a ton of interest in this thing.

:headbang:

Can you describe how the flashing peak boost feature works? How does it know when to flash?

jkp1187 · 01-01-2009, 12:20 PM

twinturbo135i · 02-17-2009, 10:42 PM

good God.... I completely forgot about this and yet it still isn't available???

Jesus, I'm gonna end up getting rid of my 135i by the time this item is finally ready to be sold. lol

Wraith · 02-17-2009, 10:55 PM

Certainly one of the better mods I've seen also

Same question as everybody else though...availability and/or for both LHD and RHD vehicles ??

135i_TT · 02-17-2009, 11:08 PM

I havent seen Rixter on here in a while... idk

993 911 · 02-18-2009, 12:57 AM

I saw a 335i with this installed last fall, was pretty cool.

RiXst3r · 02-18-2009, 09:30 AM

LOL, sorry guys, its coming, I promise! I took this extra time to work in some sweet features for everyone... additional support for map switching piggybacks, screen lock/disable mode, so that you can lock out the screen so nobody can read your boost unless they know the unlock procedure, and a few other goodies too

We also took the time to do some testing of our sensors (we use a different type of sensor than other electronic boost gauges, more expensive, faster response, more accurate), and we actually proved it to be 99.8% accurate up to over 60psi!

Here is a review from a reputable shop, they installed the 335 version, give you guys something to read: http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=202381

This ain't your grandma's boost gauge

N54tt · 02-18-2009, 10:26 AM

SLO · 02-18-2009, 11:06 AM

Rixter, do you expect the cost to be the same as the 335i?

Berduderunner · 02-18-2009, 01:27 PM

If you can switch v1.22 maps 0-7 with this thing. I will buy it the day it comes out.

My grandma was naturally aspirated.

Any chance of a video for the 135i?

Krugar · 02-18-2009, 07:29 PM
