Default Spare Boost gauge?

Anyone have a spare boost gauge I can borrow for a short time? I need to send my Defi gauge off to Tein USA for servicing and not sure how long it will take to get back. I'll pay shipping to and from for the spare gauge. Don't care if it's electronic or manual as long as it works. PM me if anyone got one sitting around I could use for a couple of weeks (primarily to ease my comfort till I get mine back).

Thanks in advance.

The connector to the Command Control box came undone and I tried putting it back together but the gauge still is not reading. So, just going to send it off to Tein and will tell me what needs to be replaced. Probably will just buy the Boost solenoid and see if that fixes it.

I picked up the Sunpro, although I'm not to sure in their methods for a "vac line". That little plastic wire turbing with the imo, not so snug, connectors. I can imagine it's a Vac leak right there.

What type of vac line does the autometer use?

Yeah, boost solenoid ftw. Love my Defi's. This Sunpro bounces around while in Vac if I'm just cruising.

yea my old autometer does the same thing. not only is it a boost gauge it tells you how bumpy the road is you're driving on.
