hi all,

 

My boost gauge sits between the small marking (10.5 psi?) and the last 14psi marking, so about 12.5psi or so.

 

its an unmodified (as far as i know!) uk manual.

 

I know the stock gauge can be very inaccurate, just wondered what everyone elses reads (as standard )

I feel the need, the need for speed!

My stock gauge reads 14psi at full throttle. My after market reads 9.1psi

bout 13psi boost and -10 psi vacuum

same here, my uk manual standard also read nearly 14 psi when booting it. sounds like a better gauge is required

You might want to try this method, get a set of furry dice and hang them around your rear veiw mirror and when you boot it the dice swing in the same way as the needle. If you get the dice to hit the targas that is 14 psi boost!

I swear this is true, someone in Iraq got done for the crime of:

"Transportation of devices allowing gambling"

 

His crime, yep you guessed it - two furry dice in his car LMAO!!!!!

boost gauge max 3rd notch on WOT so approx 10.5psi and nearly -14 on foot off decelerate. Std UK auto with big pipes and a K&N.

Yeah I hear they're unreliable but boost guage is consistent whereas my oil pressure gauge reads normal some days then low others.
