Well after installing and using a boost gauge for a week my 3sgte doesnt seem to have any boost creep. This hopfully means that the hks evc IV boost controller i bought will work properly.... as such i started to mod an extra shifter shroud.

I started my day looking for plastic things that have the same texture as the rest of the center peices. After a hopping around from store to store i finally ended up in a Office Depot and found this...

the plastic color and texture matched perfectly and the plastic was also strong.

After using a dremel and file set to get rid of the cig lighter I used a pattern i made to dremel this out of the magazine holder.

not a great pic as all of these were taken with a cell phone but you can kinda see how well the textrue and color of the plastic matches the rest of the center peices

next i had to make a braket and dremel a hole for the boost controller to be held secure and to poke its face through.

I refiled some of the plastic peice that i made inorder to even some of the lines around the evc

Good idea with the bc mounting, ive got mine stuck next to my leg, not the best place for visability whilst driving!
