I've heard a lot of bad things about autometer boost gauges. I've got one thats about 7psi low. Is it true that they are not as good as other gauges??? If so, what is the reccomended gauged under $100?

I have had many Autometer Boost gauges and have never had a problem.

VDO are nice and cheap also. My autometer fell apart and read about 2 psi low.

Yeah many people complain about the Autometer Boost gauges not sittng on the zero when off, and their EGT probes suck dick. As said above, VDO makes very inexpensive, but decent gauges. Stewart Warner is a step above Autometer, but they "look" about the same.

No it's not. Call up LSE, DB, or Elite. I ordered all of my SWP gauges from Elite about a year ago. If you bleed Slowboy, they also sell SWP.

The most accurate I've found has been the Greddys. Too bad you have to convert your mind to metric. Boo.

I'm probably going to switch certain gauges to Autometer since I'll be replacing my speedo and tach with their bigger, more accurate than stock gauges. The factory tach is a joke once you start making any real power.
