Found it on a honda board...looks to be good quality, and for $28 shipped, thats hard to beat...now if i can just find the 951 to put it in <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="wink.gif" /> I don't want to jinx it, but i may have found it...

You can get the VDO guage for $30 also.......same brand as OEM.

I am down in VA and have a nice 951 I am selling if your deal falls through.

I can vouch for the VDO boost gauge as well. I just bought mine recently from Summit Racing and it was $28 or so plus shipping. Compliments the factory gauges nicely.

Hey Ron, How do you like the Reliaboost...and do you have the model 1 or 2...

RJP 951

Mike,

The ReliaBoost works as advertised, but I don't have experience with the LBE or other devices to compare it to. I have the original model (1).

I like the way it allows for adjustment. Seems like a quality piece, and it was inexpensive, too. I've had it installed for several months, but I drive the car infrequently so I can't speak to long-term reliability, etc. I was glad to see Danno chose the same unit to include in the GURU kits though... good endorsement.

I just order chips from GURU so I'm anxious to see these upgrades working together.

951carter,

I go to see the car this weekend...please email me the details of your car. mymodena@hotmail.com

as for the vdo, you guys were right! much better fit!

Unless that car is a really good deal, wait until you drive mine. It is a really good car, and I will back that up.

Yours is different than mine........Mine also has vacuum.

Perry 951

I know.. I wanted this one so I could read all my boost!

The stock gauge will still show VAC. Either way, VDO is the way to go.

Danno

Wow, a 30psi boost gauge.... I think I'm going to have to find a way to max that baby out!!!

The VDO with the vacuum has boost all the way to 25 psi. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="eek.gif" />

Perry 951

I am gonna run 18-20PSI, maybe more on the dyno to see what happens.

Since the Vac area takes about 40% of the gauge surface, the resolution for boost is not as good. The other reason I got it is because you do not see too many gauges like this one.

OZ951

My boost vac gauge goes to 20 PSI and whilst I do not plan to run more than 20PSI, I like the idea of having more gauge so that you can see if the boost is going any higher than it should be (spiking) for whatever reason.

A week ago a friend of mine (Sami 944S) and me put a Revotec boost gauge in to my 951.
It goes from -1 to +2 Bar ( to 29 PSI ).
The gauge is a black on white, and the gauge's backround light is adjustable from the main gauge dimmer. I do recommend, though it ain't cheap, 80 $, but it's worth it..
