(seen as everyone elses threads lately have titles like this i didnt want to feel left out)
.......chav looking boost gauge?
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/60mm-TURBO-BOOST-GAUGE-STEPPER-BLACK-FACE_W0QQitemZ200337843116QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM?hash=item200337843116&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14&_trkparms=72%3A1689%7C66%3A2%7C65%3A12%7C39%3A1%7C240%3A1318%7C301%3A0%7C293%3A1%7C294%3A50
price seems fair. i want a 60mm one so i can see it easier as my eyesight isnt what it used to be. i just dont want to buy chav looking stuff and cant afford the apexi one i actually want.
chav, or not chav? thanks for your opinions.

well i really want to display this stuff, and lambda etc on a flip out tv screen thats connected to a laptop. but that just seems a bit too fast and furious style for me.
52mm is just too small. i cant really read whats going on.

About 20 psi  . It doesn't really matter if it looks cheap or chav, if it does it's job & all that jazz then i suppose your onto a winner.

nice to know. this is whats wrong with the boost gauge i have at the minute. once it gets passed about 10psi, cant actually make out what its reading. hence the change being needed. maybe it needs angled a bit more towards the drivers chair, but i fancy something new and larger to look at.
its just not the same now i have no apexi. that worked great and was easy to read.
