    Best Boost Gauge for S2

    This has probably been covered many times on here but I can't find it. Can anyone recommend a decent boost gauge for the S2 both in terms of accuracy and blending in with the existing gauges\dash of the S2?

    Theres a load of cheapo's on ebay but not sur ewhat they'd actually be like.

    As always, an direction would be appreciated.

                      How do they fit... can you simply insert a T-junction into the hose that comes into the ECU???.. then run a spur off it round the back of the dash?


                      Also.. where's the fave place for locating the dial? Between the air vents?

                        Yep, that's exactly how one does it, really easy

                        The centre dash vent seems to be the favoured location.

                          personlly id take a hks, greddy, defi if you want accuracy.

                          anything under a 1'er may not be too accurate.

                          i use a defi BF boost. its electric so no feeding vac lines. it has a sensor that connects to the control box and is the t-pieced with a short line somewhere. cant remember. reads the same as the E-boost 2 and the ECU.
