the guage is prob ok..as for the boost controller(and I say 'boost controller' lightly).. wouldn't touch it myself.. its just an incar bleed valve.. the tempation of 'just up another notch' is overwelming..till you overboost..under fuel etc and things go pop..my advice..steer clear.

I do like the gauge but think i prefere the analoge type and as for the boost controller i will forget about that,i really dont want to blow it up

Don't just take my word for it, I'm no expert.. Having a boost guage is a nice touch...dead easy to fit too.

Check out gaugeplace for a good gauge and get one of the stepmaster series. Duncan, Steve spoons and myself all have this type fitted and so far no problems as yet

I did see the stepmaster that steve fitted and it looks very smart but now the site has gone so im now looking at the prosport range dont know if they are as good?

Ah, so it has! I'd recommended them to Steve and Mark - I wonder if they've gone gone or maybe now selling only through eBay.
