Group buy: VDO boost gauge in BAR

[HPmuirt]

If there are any left over spare I would be very interested in one

Sorry, but I only ordered enough to fill the GB, without spares, as I am not a trader and assumed that we were getting to a saturation point as this is the 3rd GB.

I will see if Gerd ordered any spare gauges as he may hold stock. I'll let you know.

Hi,

Well I am probably not the person to answer this as firstly I am the organiser of the GB (although I am not related to the manufacturer/seller) and secondly my previous boost gauge was utterly useless, so my basis for how the VDO works is potentially false.

However, that said, my car boost exactly as specified, including overboost so I believe that the VDO gauge is very accurate. I did have a leak after installation, which meant that the gauge could not show full boost, but once sealed, it works damn well

A better person to comment would be Greg, as he has a digital boost gauge and the VDO and can therefore do a direct comparison.

Hi Guys, finally I have a decent update for you......mainly good news

Most of the gauges and all of the gauge holders arrived this afternoon. I have wrapped nearly all of them and will heading to the post office tomorrow morning, so those in the UK should be receiving them on Thursday/Friday...ready for the weekend.

The minor bad news is that we are still 2 gauges short I have emailed Gerd who has has spares and will post them out to me tomorrow, so these should only be a few days behind the others.

Strangely, Gerd is sure that 3 of those 11 in the picture above are RS2, but I can only see 2 (top left and top middle). Unfortunately, I have already wrapped all the others and cannot face unwrapping them all, so if anyone receives an RS2 white, rather than an S2 grey gauge, PM me and I will pay for and send you a replacement asap.

As I posted in the holder thread, I am very sorry for the delays. What with a lack of communication from Gerd and my very sporadic recent forum usage, I realise that you have all been somewhat in the dark.

Cheers n
