I had to ask

I emailed Yamaha with a question.
You offer turbo kits for the new models.
Are you going to offer a factory gauge to read AFR and Boost?

The response, I got back was no.

Just thought ,I would put this out for you all.
I think this would be nice, with a little larger numbers in the temp bars.
Just my thoughts.

To keep the kit price down they do not include the $300 in gauges. at 4.5 lbs of boost it is probably ok to run that way but without them you never know what you got!!! They are easy to install and lots of ways to mount them.

Yes I do agree with you, but my point as a customer was, if you don't say anything nothing will ever get improved.
I do think on average one letter speaks for about 100 people.

I agree also but the kit us a base to get you smiling and it will do that its us fools that need more power (grunt) as Tim Taylor would say that really need the gauges. I will say I can't read mine under acceleration until my eye balls roll forward

Yamadog how did you get the backlight to shut off on one side of your gauges?

I think his gauge is broken?

Yes just buy a Yamacat and some things will not work properly - the fun one is when your 200 miles away and it is -30 and the hand warmers quit and all you have with you is mechanics gloves.

Although I would be pissed that the handwarmers stopped working, I would think that some driver error was involved in not taking along proper attire when its -30 out. Just saying.
