What boost gauges do you guys have?
Accuracy?
Price?

Any Recommendations?

Damn lots of question marks. 😮

I also use a cheapy, I could boost 1.5 bar or only 0.5 and I don't know it, a proper one is going to start at about R900.

AutoGauge so another cheapie here. Been working for 3 years plus, wouldnt know about its accuracy. Good enough for me

if i had the cash i would use deFi, or Greddy, HKS, those are fancy jap gauges!!!

slightly cheaper but well known to be of the highest quality is the VDO range of gauges - although they are not as pretty as the others!

R950....as for where...well I cant say, they only have 1 left, if I tell you I will have to wait....so um...sorry bud...hope you understand....

VDO's boost guage is about that much, but not even half as pretty. but i prefer function over form. i'd rather have an ugly gauge give me an accurate reading, than a pretty gauge tell me lies!!! kinda like dating a supermodel who is supercrap in bed!!!!

where is metrika made??? do have they have accuracy certificates draco?

DDracomoderator09 Oct 2007, 10:54

It is made by Isotta, all research indicates it is a high end accurate guage...google it

I use the Zeitronic AFR it displays my boost, It uses a military standard pressure sensor so it is accurate down to 3 decimal places.

Has anybody opened that metrikalab site, I tried for the last 30 mins with no luck....what does it say...roughly...

wwidowmaker09 Oct 2007, 12:06

Ero, they sed they have one new one left, and i got it - the other one is an item the customer returned because it fell into a tub of vaseline after which he washed it off with drain cleaner.

it looks like crap, but hey, it works great!
