quick T2 Question

on your stock gauge
with the key ON and the car NOT running... what does the stock boost gauge read?
how about with the pressure sensor disconnected... key on, car not running?
what about with car running?

My boost gauge stays down on the 20 (VAC). When I turn the key on without it running.

Even with the car running it stays on the 20 untils I start putting a load on it or give it some gas then it goes up to the zero and upwards to boost if I am getting on the gas.

But if I get up to speed and keep it steady it stays at the 20 unless I drop it down a gear.

Mike
