yes i searched before....no results.

Why do so many people angle their gauges toward the passenger. I cannot imagine it is easier to read.

I could understand the boost gauge so that 0 is up top but why any others? Ive seen people with A/F tilted, pyro, volt...is it me or does it just not make sense?
 
If it makes sense to you, is easier for YOU to read and YOU like the way it looks, tilt them. It comes down to preference... there is no right/wrong way.
 
I think what your talking about is rotating them, some people, like me, like them turned so when the operating temps and pressures are all correct, the needles all point straight up, basicly for quick reference so you dont have to read each one individually, then it takes nothin but a glance and your good to go hammer down :p
