Their boost gauges are notorious for being very inacurate, wouldn't surprise me if their other ones were too.

I dont know if mine is innaccurate as far as the reading but the boost gauge in my truck sits on like 3 psi when the truck is off. I get about 17 inHg vaccum at idle so idk.

+1 on the boost gauge. I have one in my car and its a HUGE pile of shit. It will sit there and give me 10psi when I KNOW im only pushing 6/7

Yes, I had a temp gauge completely lose the tinsel on the spade contacts so that it forces me to use the ring connectors. But I plan on sending it back before the years up. Contrary to the pyro gauge I got made in the US that temp gauge was made overseas and we all know what shit we get off the boat.
