Looks like I need a boost gauge, so... many... to... pick... from! Ahhh I am overwhelmed with choice. They range from 25$ at the auto part store all the way to 300$!!

I don't need anything fancy but I heard digital is the way to go. I saw an AEM digital gauge on atkins rotary for 140 ish.

What is a decent gauge to get? What is the difference? What are 'brand names' that are higher rated?

Searching round the forum I didn't find much (could have missed a topic on it somewhere)

Ah... Well, I guess it is best you got a brand new clutch then. You won't regret that purchase.

I've read plenty of great reviews about Prosport gauges. Plus, they're a VERY close match to the stock amber colored gauges.

I went and had a look at their gauges, pretty slick!

One thing that had me worried was on some of the gauges it says not adjustable over 1000ft... I live in Denver, 5000ft, so not sure if I need something special for that or not. Otherwise I was looking at this:

Not sure if I should go mechanical or electric. Should I email them and ask about high elevation? Great prices!

I called them this morning, they said that the mechanical ones don't have the altitude problem just the electrical ones. Mechanical 52mm Amber boost gauge ordered! Nice gauge and great price. I'll let everyone know how they work!
