Hmm, that's only carbon effect, I'd prefer real carbon like the eBay link I posted. That said, I can see my father being rather pissed at me if I destroy several jigsaw blades cutting a real CF panel.

From link "Carbon of this thickness bends very easily in one dimension and can be cut with scissors or a sharp knife."

Its not that hard to cut. Ill be doing something similar soon when i get some spare time.

Or try it yourself. Whip out the old cable ties and soldering iron. I did a whole faring on my street bike when I cam off.

Hmm interesting.

Just to clarify, this is to stick the actual boost controller on to plastic, so I want to do this in such a way that it could be removed without damage at a later date in case the controller stopped working and needed replacing etc.

BTW, I just bought some carbon fibre sheets from Ebay and got the guy to machine the holes etc. He does ICE for a living, but is probably moving abroad soon.

Does the controller have a mounting bracket of some sort?

 

[Gee]

Nah. Just gonna glue it down on to some plastic that has been built of the back of the centre console.

I've had some luck with plastic epoxy from the hardware store.

yeah gee, gota say that is definitely dam cool....

ONLY thing ive always found a pain is trying to see your boost pressure while your driving when located in the center console such way in the picture.....

although it does look the part.... do you not find it a problem at all mate?

Sorry to go off track..... lol
