Westy Posted February 10, 2012 Share Posted February 10, 2012 Anyone have these in their cars or heard much about them!? They are obviously Defi copies, but if they are accurate they are far better priced! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jonathanc Posted February 10, 2012 Share Posted February 10, 2012 long ago I got same looking boost gauge for my MR2 (although it didn't have the wired thing sticking out from the back). Pretty accurate as it has a stepper motor and looks nice with the "smoked" look while unlit. I can't remember exact price but it was around 20-30 quid from ebay.

The accuracy of a gauge is based on the sensor, not on the actual mechanism of the guage. You could use any old dross as the actual "gauge" the sensor is where the money needs to be spent for accuracy. I checked my boost gauge and it was pretty good (within 0.2 psi @ 15psi) and it's what would be considered cheap crap (glowshift). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
