My first boost gauge was a VDO. It would only read up to to 7psi, even though it was a 20psi gauge. I replaced it with an Autometer soon after.

Huh, I still use my VDO (in the red car) and it is 8 years old, still works perfect!

I've never had any problems with any Autometer gauges. My boost gauge works great.

Or maybe it doesn't? HUM, let me think now, yes, that's the ticket. "That's right fellas, I ran 11.47 @ 122 mph on 19 psi because my boost gauge was off by 10 psi". hahahahahahaha :p

I haven't seen an official release date but I'm sure there is one somewhere. I would get ahold of SLS as they seem to move a large amount of Autometer gauges and can probably get you a very competitive price.

Anyone with the Stewart Warner boost guages have any problems with visiblilty at night? It seems that the gauge is backlit but the needle is not. So how hard is it to see the needle?

Also summitracing.com now carries autometer nexus but the cost is not justifyable to me at all.
