[QUOTE="FJohnny, post: 16480389, member: 191643"] I also have a '14 with pretty much your same setup and was dead keen on being able to see for myself what boost I was actually getting. I remember agonizing over which gage, what mount style and all the details of installation. I ended up getting the mechanical, (not electronic) Autometer 6107 Cobalt series gage and mounted it into the Roush vent pod installed on the left side of the steering wheel. Pros: - gage range 30" vacuum to 20 psi boost fits the around 20" to 10 psi you are likely seeing. - gage looks like it came with car and color matches the blue setting I was already using for dash lights. Vent pod works great and still allows a/c air to get by. - cheap at around $80 for the gage (Rockauto) and $40 for the pod from local Ford/Roush dealer. - install was simple. Need to pick up one brass adapter fitting for the pressure hose/line to go where the plug is on the rear pass side of your Roush intake. Didn't even hook up gage light as it was easy to see without. Definitely get combo vac/boost and not just boost. Good for spotting vacuum leaks and any change from normal. You're right about not looking at it constantly after the first few days but it's nice to know you're getting your correct boost numbers. You'll be amazed how fast the gage switches from cruising vac to boost when you hit the gas. Good luck with your choice. [/QUOTE]
