Best Boost Gauge?

Post by oleman77 »

Ok fella's, looking at installing a boost gauge on a 94 EJ22T so I can see how much boost I'm making. Any suggestions?

You didn't mention what you have done to the car. Is it still stock?
The BEST would be Defi. I doubt anyone could argue otherwise.

A cheap gauge if you are running stock setup

Autometer gauges are decent compromise between cost and looks/operation.

I actually just bought this gauge to test for vacuum leak. Looking for something to mount in a cluster. I'll check out the Defi.....thanks....

if you are planning on modding your car and turning boost up in the future i highly recommend investing in an AEM truboost
its a gauge and boost controller in one that you can change on the fly and from within the cabin of your car
have ran mine for years and would not thinking about buying anything else if i had to replace it
