boost gauge read 1 psi when car is off, wtf!
 
Okay is that normal for an Autometer boost gauge to read 1 psi when the car is off? cuz my boost gauge when at WOT it sometimes reads 10 psi... is that really 9 psi then?

Sometimes mine reads 1psi when the cars off, sometimes it reads 0. Autometer sucks.

With as big a company as they are and the experience they have you'ld think they could make a decsent boost gauge. They should keep all that contingency they pay and put it into better boost gauge development. Its because of lil ---- like this that nobody buys american made anymore... :P

oh yeah, I got the same prob on mine too. ::)
