I've never seen that before on an Rx-8, but thats probably because it looks horrible.

it doesnt really look that bad guys. its just excessivly out of the way for a boost gauge. youd have to take your eyes so far off the road to know what it says.

There was someone here about a year ago that had replaced his vent. I personally like my air, and don't see that as a viable option.

its not like you lose use of your a/c completely. you would just be giving up 1 of 6 vents.

i've seen it done before in the rx8, and it didn't look too bad either. The pic here has a small gauge and it looks out of place...
