Default Roush boost guage?

I want to keep it cut and dry! Any members who have this installed how close is the blue to the factory dash? It almost looks close but I cant tell.

They are definately 2 different blues, but it still looks good.
It looks better than the red boost gauge I was running before I bought the Roush gauge.

I wonder why they wouldn't make one that has the same blue?

My dash lights are white and they match with the white setting good enough. This gauge wasn't meant for the EB. It was meant for a Roush mustang. The 2 sites that I found that sell it both have it in their mustang categories.

Yep white matches my white pretty good. Only issue I have with mine on a 5.0 with the roush blower is the meddle bounces back and forth when it's at full boost and I hear a fluttering sound from the gauge. My installer is going to try a different port plug on the manifold and see if that helps.

I tryed both the blue and white lighting on my 11 EB and I prefer the white I mounted it in the ac vent to the left of the steering wheel so its no problem to pop the cover off at the end of the dash to acces the wires so I can change the color in just a couple of mins

bubbabud...which gauge and vent pod did you order. I have a '12 EB and would love to put one of these on. How hard is the install?

Thanks

I'm interested in the setup myself. I had an Audi where I mounted the gauge in the vent. However that kit came with a new vent that was molded around the gauge. How does this one work?

Roush has a vent pod for the F150.
