Im looking specifically for the boost gauge 4376 , its a full sweep electric w/peakhold and warning with low numbers so its easy to read for people that wont be going over 15psi
http://www.autometer.com/cat_g...=3125

I looked everywhere, best price is can get is around $175 on ebay.


wondering if anyone knows where to get a good deal on autometer, or what other gauge offers the same functions that would be cheaper/comparable?

thanks

 

ebay is best prices for autometer

 

Get a mechanical (other than Autometer), save yourself alot of money, and have a friend watch it.

 

yea definitely skip over autometer. i bought them just because i got a good deal on all my gauges at once. but when i got my boost gauge it was about 2-3psi off

You mean off as in more than what you were actuall running or less?

 

no, like gauge sitting read 3psi.

 

They're notorious for that.

Just go with a different brand.

 

i will, but for now ill live with it. ill hvae full time datalogging so ill go by what the map sensor reads and then look at the difference between boost gague and map reading

 

I meant EFbomb.

Funny name btw.

 

oh, lol.

whose name? (on painkillers... kinda slow)

 

Tried http://www.Summitracing.com ?

 

Autometer IMO

Oil Pressure gauge, Blew up and leaked through the back of the gauge IN MY CABIN!

Tachometer, Started reading from 3000 rpm after about a month

Shift light, stayed on after a while, so i ditched the whole thing.

A/F... Still use it, but it considers 14.7 lean and 13.9-ish as rich... Useless w/ out a wideband...

Get one of these ebay black out gauges. I love it, it reads dead on and is bright as hell at night.



good luck

 

summit racing is the way to go... cheap prices and QUICK reliable shipping.

yup, bought all my autometer gauges from summit and never had a problem with them. i've used mechanical boost and oil pressure without any problems.

people say the mechanical gauges can leak oil and boost pressure in the cabin but i'm sure most of those are due to installation error.

 

i've had problems with the water temp sender for the electric autometer. going on my third sender, my electric oil pressure's been fine though.

 

thanks for the replies.

jwbetley - thanks for the pic. My friend has those gauges, and he hates them. plus i wouldnt ever run a a/f gauge unless it was with a wideband and a digital readout. the autometer a/f gauges are just a light show.

ive had autometer mechanical boost before, and i was satisfied with the quality. I dont mind spending a little extra to get the peak hold and warn function. My setup is running an internal wastegate so i want the warn function atleast because i dont feel like starring at that gauge every time i get on it. my last setup was running a 38mm tial, so i didnt ever look at the gauge because it creep wasnt an issue.

What other gauges offer the peak hold/memory/warning functions ?

I know defi does most of this, but thats getting a little outa my pricerange considering the gauges going for about $200 + the $110 controller you need to run them. Im shooting for the $150-200 price range

thanks again

you must have had an mechanical oil pressure gauge for oil to be in your car....whos fault is that? Did you use the crappy line they gave you or did you use a stainless steel line. And then you go and blame autometer, but now you have ebay gauges??? I have had ZERO problems with my autometer gauges.
