Call me stupid, but is it showing negative numbers for positive boost? Oh BTW good showing for ROTM.

the negative numbers are for vacuum i would imagine.. i like it.. how much do they cost.. i want one


oops i just checked the orignal pictures and it looks like they were driving around unless they let off the throttle they were boosting and the numbers were negative.. odd....

In the first picture I was driving on the highway slightly letting off the gas, hence the -17 in vac

The second picture is idling with the A/C on, hence the reason I'm reading -16 in vac.

The video is taken at idle so you can see the actual sweep of the gauge. Just revving the car and such. I haven't had anyone else in my car while I was driving to get a better video of the gauge and how quickly it reacts to everything. Its the exact opposite of stock, the right side is vacuum (shown in negative) and the left side is boost (shown in positive). However the PSI light is always on, whereas you're stock gauge reads PSI/MMHg, this just reads PSI positive and negative....make sense? It should. Its easy.

Very easy to read, VERY easy to see, very HARD to get used to, it updates like 11ty billion times a second so it flashes around like a ****.....I remember wordslayer saying he was gonna crash because he was staring at his boost gauge too much, yeah this one is a definite for that unless you're really careful LOL, its quite the eye catcher.

Gauges are:
Red LED - $100
Blue LED - $120

vacuum starts on the right and sweeps left, when the car goes into boost the sweep starts from the left and goes right (flip flops)

rofl!!!!!!!!


man that is cheap for such a nice looking guage.. I was looking into buying a 30PSI gauge just like the stock one and they were asking $60 for it.. might as well spend the extra $40 to get a nice one.. does it have a max PSI reading?

yes, it does have a peak boost setting

There's actually a whole lineup to those gauges so you can get all matching. Oil pressure, fuel pressure, I just need to get off my tail and get all the options straight on them (doing that tonight lol)

even has the option of a wideband gauge getting hooked to an innovate lc-1 for readout (so even the wideband matches)
