HMS vent pod and 45mm electronic boost gauge fitted to a 3.0tdi A6 avant. I know it's no RS model but thought I'd still share. The integrated gauges are all the rage nowadays but for those who prefer the old school dial approach might appreciate this. I've got the same gauge installed in my C5 RS6 and Leon Cupra. We have done a range of Audi vent pods including 8L A3/S3 , 8P A3/S3, C5 A6/Rs6 as well as most of the Vw range.


The vent pod is an insert that replaces the stock vent fins, no cutting required. The vent pod insert clips into the original housing. The car is stock for now as far as software goes but still boosts a healthy 1.5bar. Customer is ecstatic with the results.
More pics to follow.

I don't have an online purchasing system at the moment. Will send you a pm DHall1.

Gauge matches the cluster OEM colours perfectly, the gauge is quite bright compared to the 11 year old cluster so I will be wiring in an adjustable resistor to reduce the brightness to match the cluster.
