Default Boost

What is a cheap reliable boost controller? I was looking into the Forge one.

Any tips would be great.

Also boost gaugues.

someones gonna tell you to read teh FAQ at the top of the forum probably. Im sure theres something there, probably whatever cincy uses, I've never actually gone thru it myself though.

As for gauges, I think its more of a personal preference. Mechanical are cheaper than electronic, but otherwise its mostly about looks/backlighting. I had a super cheap boost gauge at one point, and I kept hearing 'you get what you pay for'. Well, I put it against a calibrated pressure gauge, and it was +/- 1psi. Cant complain there.

Personally, I use Autometer Sport Comp II gauges. Boost gauge came first, and then the other gauges mainly to match things.

I'm one of those Euro only ****** so I have a VDO boost gauge. Works great accurate and smooth. There really is not such thing as a cheap and reliable boost controller. That is a important thing so don't be cheap there.

^^ I agree with achTTung - I loved my sport comp II. Matched the TT nicely, as well
