Electronic Boost Gauge vs. Manual Boost Gauge
Now with my manual boost gauge, i am still having the boost taper in different gears. In 2nd and 3rd it hits 19.5 then tapers to around 17psi, in 4th gear i get a low number around 17 at full boost, and in 5th gear it holds at 19.5 where i set it.
Will an electronic boost gauge eliminate these changing numbers and hold everything steady?
Thanks
I like coffee, and I like tea, I like the girls and the girls like me...

The car tapers from the factory. An ECU reflash, or a manual boost controller, or an electronic boost controller can remove it (the taper). The gauge has nothing to do with it (unless, of course, you have a leak there too).

So everyone has one constant steady PSI rate. Cause i have the MBC and i definitley still taper like 1-3 psi. Would a slight hissing noise possibly the BOV be the cause..?

I have the Power Enterprise boost controller/gauge. It has worked VERY well - really easy to adjust, easy to set the warnings, etc. A lot like a Defi gauge with a built-in EBC. Not cheap, but it works well and serves 2 purposes at once.
