35psi min requirement boost gauge?

[JohnTSI]

I need a good booSt gauge that at minimum reads 35psi or equiv in bar.
Any suggestions do not wish to get an autometer.

Thanks
John

Greddy has the 3 bar, 60mm model

Was not aware greddy had a 3bar 60mm I will have to check it out thanks. Know the best place to pick one up?

0-60psi gauges here. Why so much boost? Doesn't the FP 3065 start to lose efficiency at some point?

running 35 psi and kinda scary looking at a 30psi gauge pegged out. Dyno charts from fp show making more power at 35 psi than 30 have not finished the complete setup yet we will see how it goes. The GT35r on the car here definatly making better power at 35 psi though it does have a bigger turbine side just hate to have the 30psi gauge ruinning so close to the limit

Defi also makes a 30-0-35 boost gauge in their D-gauge series.

Let us know when that GT-35R loses its efficiency, Id really like to know .

The GT35r right now is trapping 132 at 30 psi it is gettign blowout at 35 so until it gets better ignition $$ it will be a while befor much more testing on that car will be made. Just lost the motor due to a oiling problem in it so it will be some time befor its back on the street

Autometer makes a 0-35 boost gauge, I have it and it works fine.

Item 2616 if I can remember correctly in the Autometer catolouge.

Nice reading comprehension there buddy

I like these the best. Had I know about them before I had gotten my autometer 0-35 I would have gotten this. I don’t know of too many gauges out there that show vacuum AND 35lbs of boost.

Any idea on price?

None. But keep in mind the Autometer 35lb gauge is around 70 bucks. So a NICER gauge would more than likely cost more.

hey i know this thread's been dead for a while but i found prices on those gauges rdrkt was talking about. i foun them at www.racerpartswholesale.com they come in 2 sizes, 2" @ $56.24 and 2 5/8" @ $61.92. both these gauges come in black,white and silver faces. i thought it was worth mentioning since i havent seen 30"-0-40 psi boost gauges at this good of a price. holla!!!

I am in the market for gauges and Id like to make a few oibservations and ask a question or two.

Defi's look to be really really nice and i was seriously considering them. however, I am looking to be able to convert the colors at a later time (probably to blue) and they are made similarly to the stock gauges it seems, out of amber plastic, and therefore, color changing is not so simple...has anyone had any luck or even tried?

these gauges on the other hand are easily changeable, as the company offers led kits (im sure they can be done on our own).
does anyone use these gauges? are they any good? also, having a 30hg to 40psi would be really nice although im sure im not going that high, and it seems like it could be hard to distinguish at that large of a sweep.

does anyone have any comments on these gauges? looks like they are coming out with an egt gauge in january. they look aweful nice and are pretty darn cheap.

 

[rdrkt]

A lot of the cars in my area run them. They look great and work just like a gauge should. If it was practical I would swap all my autometer stuff over and run their gauges.

THANKS!!!!! they have a place near me and i just realized rnr is 30 minutes away. so cool
