No personal experience with that particular gauge, but my experience is that you really do get what you pay for.

I heard the ProSport gauges are pretty good and they are inexpensive. So I guess there are situations where you get a good deal.

I've had some autometer's in my car and they were usually off by 1-2 psi. I bought some defi D series gauges and they never been wrong. I believe with gauges you should get quality stuff because its pretty vital to monitor your engine

I dont buy knock off stuff, you never know how accurate it really is. If your engine pops becuase of inaccuracy, that extra $50 for name brand top quality is worth the piece of mind to me.
