Anyone here use these? Someone on another forum pointed these out. Cheap for full sweep microprocessor controlled, customizable gauges. Made in the USA too :thumbup
Dude I dropped $165 on my Autometer cobalt digital boost, and the others were $120 a pop too. Shit hurt the pocket but they are sick ass gauges. I like the OP’s gauges too, seems worth it for the money.I like how you can customize it too, add your own logos and text if you wanted.
PS Yetti I know, my over priced boost gauge doesnt start reading until 5psi, I know, I know. :banghead
Boost gauges can be a lot more than that. Electronic gauges (not digital, like Autometer and such) get pricey because they’re a bit more accurate since you’re not running a vacuum line from under the hood to the back of the gauge. With electronic gauges, you only run a line for a few inches, and then you connect it to a sensor, which runs (through wires) to the back of the gauge. No pressure loss, really. Reliability, consistency, and accuracy > *
As far as pressure loss for a line to the gauge, I think it’s under 0.1 psi. Not 100% sure though. And the response to changes in pressure is limited by the gauge, you shouldn’t see a difference in length of the vacuum line.
Yep thats why I spent the extra monies on the Cobalt electric digitals for everything. Just plug in a few sensors you can hide anywhere on the motor and run some tiny ass gauge wire into the cabin. Well worth it.
