I think its safe to say I am the FIRST tC owner with these gauges.
I haven't seen one tC owner mention these gauges to ANYONE, or even post pics of having them!

They are the Blitz BLMs These gauges are HOTTTT




http://dezod.com/pd_blitz_mechanical_blm_gaugeegt.cfm
^ For the EGT Gauge



http://dezod.com/pd_blitz_mechanical.cfm
^ For the Boost Gauge


Purchased these gauges from Dezod. Fell in love when Paul showed me these.
I just had to get them!

Dezod also has Oil/Fuel and Oil/Water.

http://dezod.com/pd_blitz_mechanical...gepressure.cfm
^ Oil/Fuel

http://dezod.com/pd_blitz_mechanical_blm.cfm
^ Oil/Water

They are all only available in 60mm only.
They all also include the neccessary hardware and sensors!!

I think this will be the only thing I really post about my voyage into the boosted land. I dont like to let a lot of information out, especally when I'm still working on my setup right now as I speak...

My Projected Unveilment Date : April 30th

New Pic as of 4/20 10pm:



Intercooler has been sprayed black, stock grille is back on.
THAT IS ALL YOU GET TO SEE UNTIL APRIL 30TH!!

The gauges will be custom mounted on my dash. No gauge pods for me, no fiberglass, no cutting air vents Trust me, the install on these along w/ the AEM Wideband gauge will be very clean!

I cant stop drooling over these gauges lol glad you two liked them!

Blitz gauges are nice. I will have the Defi gauges. I've only seen them on the Silver ZPI car, and fell in love with them. Those Blitz look nice too. Of course I like the CF look to them...HEHEEE...

You knew it was going to be hard for me NOT to post these Paul! LOL Thanks for the good luck man, I think you and a lot of other people are curious to see what I'm doing. I told you it was top secret hence why I kept saying "I have no idea what you are talking about" when you kept asking me

You are talking to a guy who has the only tC on these boards with a C/F front end... :D I bought the 18 pc C/F dash kit from TRDSparks. I didn't install all of it though.

Yeah Paul's been pushing me to put those bad boys in my tC as well haha. I had to do the suspension/brakes and paint first though. Now that you have them I should start looking around again. Sick gauges though, we love blitz.

In case you don't have a boost controller yet...

Blitz Dual SBC Spec-S $340
http://www.dezod.com/pd_blitz_sequen...erdual_sbc.cfm

I ran that bad boy on my turbo civic with methanol injection. Without a doubt one of the best boost controllers at that price point. Eliminates any boost spike, has 4 different boost modes (Stage 1, 2,3,4) that act as preset boost levels. So now you can have a rain setting, dry, spirited driving, and race. That's the option I went with. 2 of my friends bought it for their cars shortly after and none of us had any problems with the unit. As I said before, it's loaded with features, and looks great. Ask if you have other questions on the unit.
