ya I wouldnt go with an apc one bro. . boost is a very big deal on this car, so make sure you get a good boost gauge not just some cheap one!! a 75$ -200$ boost gauge may seem like alot but its ALOT cheaper then over boosting and not knowing it and blowing the motor!!

Everything has different quality from brand to brand. That said, boost gauges are simple pieces of machinery and basically are pretty much the same.

check out prosport gauges. they seem super cheap and people have been getting good results out of them.

Stewart Warner makes a great gauge for the MSP. It's available in silver to match the stock gauges, the backlighting at night closely matches the stock gauge lighting, and it only reads to 15 psi, so a larger portion of the gauge is used.
