Boost Gauge won't stop bouncing!!!

[TurboLaggin]

Hey, i'm new by the way.. but here's my problem. I have an Autometer boost gauge it works good but when i get on the gas the needle won't stop bouncing. I have a 2G and i have the pressure hose connected to the "P" side of the throttle body. Does anyone have any idea why it won't stop bouncing? am i getting bad pressure from there? thanks

not sure why its bouncing but ive never heard of anyone hooking up the pressure source to the throttle body port.. try running the hose off a T on the FPR line.

damn larry your car is nice...... sorry for the off subject post

The P port should be fine also... that's where I tapped mine when I eliminated all my vacuum lines. You might try T'n into the FPR line & see if that changes anything. Could also have a faulty autometer gauge... it's been known to happen sometimes (if it is autometer will replace it free of charge).

what type of boost controller do you have? A buddy of mine had a avcr and it would do the same thing....flutter and bounce around due to the fact that we had no clue how to use the controller
