I know that they go up £100 in price and I'm guessing the one's on ebay like this:- Budget Boost Guage ...are a bit on the cheap side , can anyone recommend a mid-price guage that won't fall to bits but doesn't cost the earth? I will probably need one with a pod as I rely on the clock to tell me if I'm late for work Regards Austin GT28rs,Pro alloy FMIC,Blueflame exhaust,SIP, Bosch 440cc,Helix organic clutch,Stage 3,331bhp,295lbft

Forget trying to see the needle in daytime, even with the gauge back-lit. The surface of the gauge scratches easily too. However, the needle movement is incredibly responsive and smooth. I needed a gauge temporarily and it did the trick, I just can't live with it long-term. 1998 S 20VT LE
