Boost gauge questions
Fella's

I have a 52mm Autometer Carbon Fiber 30-30 Boost Gauge and when I am driving under WOT the needle on the gauge vibrates and shakes really bad anywhere from 16-20 psi..... I know its not a leak or car vibration. Just wanted to see if anyone has had this happen or if anybody has any good idea's. Btw I am tee'd in at the fuel pressure solenoid line.

Thanks!

It's possible that it's the poor-quality of autometer's mechanical gauges. May be change it to a better brand (I like Defi), or go electrical.
