the AutoMeter boost gauges get a little optimistic past 8psi, but none the less, they are generally accurate and serve as a good reference point.
my friend has a 91 TII with an autometer boost gauge, and it reads 10 psi at peak boost, this is with an intake only. he should be at 7.5-8.
I tested another one at 10 psi, and it showed 10.5.
just lettin ya know

Definitely a boost guage first and foremost, EGT guage with O2 sensor, and water temp. Right now I have an oil temp., oil pressure and fuel pressure and including Boost and EGT.

How accurate are the autometer temperature gauges?
Anyone know if there are any variances on the readings? I'm considering buying one and don't want to make a mistake, thanks for the input!
