Boost Gauge Question

Are peak and warning on the gauges important? is it worth spending more money?

If you're going for a spirited drive and pop off a boost or vaccum line and overboost, that bright red warning LED or flashing blue peak light or warning beep from the control unit may come in very handy.

I would say No..... You know how much boost you're running. And as far as poping the hose or a vaccum line, you're going to feel it right away. Your gauge will be reading data wrong, so you will be able spot it right away. Those features are useless

You're counting votes? The benefits of warnings were explained to you. Now it's time to make-up your own mind.
