digital boost gauge? Are digital boost and fuel pressure gauges as accurate as regular gauges. I would think they would be but the prices are lower for digital gauges compared to beefed up standard gauges. Both the gauges were 0-30 psi just wondering if anyones running a digi gauge...

I run the nordskog digital boost and fuel pressure gauges. They just show the pressure to the nearest psi, no half psi. The boost gauge usually shows 1 psi with no boost but once your in boost it reads correctly. A lot of people have problems with the digital gauges because you have to have a really good ground. You have to ground them directly to the engine block or they won't work. A ground on the fender won't cut it.

We've installed alot of the Dakota Digital gauges and I run their boost gauge on my Suburban. Much easier to read while your trying to watch the road!
