Works well! - Electric

Worked great for a few days but the light went out and has stopped working. The sensor still reads well even though it's vacuum boosted so there's a lot of direct vibration with this product so I shouldn't get upset if the lights go out.

Pros
  • Electric
Cons
  • Legacy model

The backlight is also too bright at night.

Backlight too bright at night, even with dimming, so I turned them off for now. However, the red LED that illuminates the dial is enough at night to illuminate the entire dial. So I'm going to use a relay to reverse the signal from the interior lights so the lights turn on and off during the day. at night with my car's sensor system.

  • Sensorsets
Cons
  • Interval

Works very well for the price

This sensor is actually more accurate than I expected although it is quite slow to respond to rapid pressure changes. The biggest disadvantage is actually that the color changes back to blue most of the time after the car is parked. Only in some places does it remain the same color that I set while driving. I actually bought a red-only sensor to match my cluster and AF sensor, but it annoys me that I have to switch the color back almost every time I drive. It's also not very bright, so it can…

Numerous issues, usually poor quality

I understand that many people have had success with this sensor, but I would like to warn others that this is a gamble. sometimes up to 40%. The arrow wasn't at 0 either and jumped to other values when I tapped the sensor. This was all tested with another sensor and a boost tester. In addition, the color selection was accidentally reset to blue from time to time, and the color was sometimes noted. . Followed this up with an autometer and had no problems. It is clear that there is no real form…

Get what you pay for

I have a low boost supercharger and this is one of the few mechanical gauges that reads both vacuum and boost, but only up to 15psi. So I took a chance and burned myself. This didn't help with its primary purpose of reading accurate pressure readings. My readings were 1.5-2 psi lower, which was confirmed by testing two other mechanical gauges, both of which showed higher readings and were equal to each other. I live at 5280 feet but have never had a problem with other mechanical gauges. Plus…
