Boost gauges.

[Kelv]

Seems to be a bit of a challenge to find a decent 2.5 bar boost gauge.

Anyone found anything that's readily available and of a decent quality?
All I've managed to come up with seems to be the Racetech item.

Anyone used one of these?
Believed to be accurate?

Shame the old Apexi 2.5bar boost gauge isn't still available, unless anyone has one they fancy selling to me

Mine used the old Collins 40psi gauge which seemed fine mate

[grcossie]

Doesen`t Autometer have 2,5bar boost gauge?

[Kelv]

Jon, can you PM or Text me your address please mate.
I've got some bonnet pins and spare bonnet catches here for you

Kelv i have a racetech one, white face with backlight. I only put it in this summer and so far it seems accurate enough and it works fine. It doesnt look the most professional gauge on the market but like you say its hard to find a 2.5 bar one. Ill take some pics and post them up tomorrow if you like?

Tested my mechanical Racetech gauge at work on the fancy calibration rig and lad doing it was well impressed with the accuracy for the cost of gauge.

get a nice Stack dash Kelv.

And thats how it began last time

[Kelv]

Already looked at stack dashes again, but even stack don't do more than a 2bar/30psi gauge.
And my old 80mm 4 bar was the last one that stack did of that variant

Ideally I'd like to have the standard clocks refurbed and keep those but Brendan doesn't seem to do them anymore.
Anyone know where else repairs them?

Dave H, that would great if you don't mind, I'm not keen on running a T4 at full song and using the standard dash gauge

Tore, @ £20 and to be a short term remedy, then I'll be happy.
My dash boost gauge almost comes back round onto itself at the mo (I am
Slightly exaggerating there tho!)

I see your point, and I'm going to have the same problem next year as I'm going well past 2 bar.

I nned to buy a external map sensor for my current aem gauge to make it read more than 2 bar boost. And it's £120!!!! FFS

[Kelv]

Ouch

[Loader]

I got a racetech 2.5 bar , had a couple and always been happy.

[Kelv]

Just been looking, not even £40 inc delivery to my door brand new

Think it could be the ideal short term fix

Here you go Kelv
