Default Boost guages. Which one?
What is everyone running. Any preferences in guages? Digital or not? Also what other guages are you running on your set up.

Boost and fuel pressure are the two common gauges for FI. Boost is obvious, you want to know how much pressure you are running. A fuel pressure gauge will allow you to keep your fuel system in check. If the fuel pressure drops this indicates that your fuel system is maxed out, thus your motor is running very lean and BOOM!!!

I have a boost gauge for sale. It's an Autometer Phantom electric, with warning light and peak boost recall. Let me know. Thanks!
