    Seen those gauges before and i really liked them, expect they dont do them in Bars or KPa which to me is the only measurement to use on the S2.

          Thats not bars that kg/cm2 which is approx 0.98 = 1 bar

          1 kg/cm2 = 0.9804 bar

          Different measurement

                sorry. I knew I would screw up the metric thing. Too old to learn.

                  PSI is better than BAR... the scale for bar is not wide enough to monitor..

                    Sorry, but that's just rubbish!

                    I have a gauge that is available in both BAR and PSI and they both move the same amount for a given change in boost/vacuum, only the numbers on the minor and major lines are different.

                    Since when do you read the actual reading on your boost gauge, unless you have a problem. You'll find that most of the time you glance at the gaude then look away and instinctivly know what the reading is...i.e. is it normal...not is it 1.4312 BAR or 24.956 PSI.

                    I agree that BAR is 'original' for S2's due to that fact that early Audi turbos used BAR and it was the measurement of the S2 era. PSI is for modern rice burners...sorry BRY...(but hey, you drive a stealth hearse so yours should be in RIP [Resultant Inlet Pressure] anyway )

                    Cheers n (cheap French)
