Default what boost gauge shall i buy?

its for my cossie running 2bar plus, my racetech gauge has shit it self and makes a horible noise on boost. also i wasnt keen on how the needle shakes around all the time.. are there other gauges around for this kind of boost? i'm not interested in forking out on defi's as there silly money...

cheers

Have a racetech myself, never had any issues with it! Have a look on 'merlin motorsport's website for a few ideas, the stack ones are quite nice though a bit more money than the likes of racetech/mocal etc.

SPA are good, i'd remote mount the sensors though as they (were) prone to failing because of vibration.

2bar plus I'm guessing 31/32psi....



I'd say Defi, but price goes up on them all the time.
