I guess you declined to read 'the truth about ram-air' previously posted. Hope you honestly don't expect to see anywhere near 1psi, hell if you can get over .25 I'll buy it.....

By cheap and accurate I just mean which ones are GOOD but not 300 dollars(sarcasm).

Thanks
Guess i should have included this. Anyway, I believe that site concluded, that at most, at 100mph in a perfect direct air condition the most positive pressure achievable was .196psi? Don't get me wrong, ram-air is DAMN good, but you're not going to see much if anything at all for positive pressure, but you will be able to get it up near the 0 mark, which is where all that extra oomph comes from

Hmm ok well I seem to have lost the link to the damn guages I found these but were there any better ones? as far as price goes. I am already doing road tests but I want you all to see the numbers.

Post up links if you can find guages that will read that much for less.

LCD temp display

It isn't back-lit and it's battery-powered but it's not bad for US$25. I've got one that'll be installed in my IC outlet hose soon.
