VDO - very high quality, the reference standard for German cars, fairly inexpensive, no ricer JDM bling.

You have a car that retails for $32K+ and you are looking to be cheap on parts???

Doesnt make sense

Solution = sell the car if you cant afford the good stuff

Since when 32k was expensive for a car? The evo is a cheap rallybread car that can perform for a low price. I can't take when fellow evo owners talk about our bang for the buck, POS interior car like it's an Enzo. You didn't even point the OP
in any direction and only left some childish negative comment. How about you sell your evo for some gray matter.

For the OP, the Stewart Warner is one of the best gauge you can get for the price (kind of like the evo) .

First off your grammar sucks.

Second, I did not talk about anything being the best bang for the buck but apparently you contradict yourself and say this...

Nor would anyone in their right mind put an Evo on the level of a super car like the Enzo.

Third, I dont care if I didnt give the OP a recommendation on what gauge to go with.

Finally, I do have a brain and apparently some people dont when they are searching around for a cheap @ss boost gauge and everything that they have put on their car has been wrong from day one. (Read his threads)

Gray matter on the floor belongs to you my friend

I'm not lecturing you, just using common sense. If you have finally gotten around to getting your car tuned then you should not have to worry about anything. If you are interested i am going to be selling my stock MR boost gauges soon when i get my other 2 Defi gauges and the Gruppe-s pod.

Autometer seems to be your answer for $60 and under. Although Stewart Warner are better.
