this thought just popped into my head...has anyone thought of somehow tuning the onboard computer to show the boost/psi level of the turbo in the display unit

There was a thread on vortex about this. I believe some aftermarket company made some sort of interface box to the MFD that made it show boost. Pics they were showing were of the MKI TT MFD.

I've seen that guage pod before, it may look nice but I think it's too much of a pain to look down to see it.

Just saw on that site you gave mr_grey that picture of the mkv and wow something about it made it just look bad ass!

There is a lot of subtle body styling going on that isn't very obvious but somehow you notice it on a subconcious level. That's what I love about Euro styling. You can see the difference between Japanese styling with over the top wings etc and with the Euro styling with kits that are an extention of the cars styling.

I could imagine someone driving into a tree while they are too busy seeing what boost their producing. It does look good though.
