Need a half decent boost gauge that doesn't cost a fortune. Bought one of ebay that cost me £30 but when on boost it hissed and rattled which was annoying so that went in the bin

Whats good for not a lot of money?

I don't mind the hissing, it was more so the rattling the needle made that was annoying.

Gotta love a boost guage as it winds round, once mine was running over 290 the way it whipped round to 21psi was amusing

Yeah can get various more expensive ones. If I want to record it I'd just log the ecu as its not really a useful bit of data unless you can use it in relation to other things recording boost, IMHO of course.
