Default BOOST GAUGE.

i have some question for you guys.

My mods are

PWJDM intake
BERK test pipe
MUGEN AP2 exhaust

i have other mods but they are only body parts or just some bling bling on the engine.

well yesterday i was just messin around on the 71fwy going at around or up to 120mph.

i was at a speed of 75mph then down shift to 4th waited till vtec then shift to 5th..

i notice that my boost gauge was at around 1-2 Psi It usually never pass the 0 mark but yesterday it passed that mark.

I have never ran my car that hard before. well maybe like 1 year ago.

so is there something wrong with my gauge? im not quite sure cause it looks like it works perfect and it was installed in the correct place.

Are you sure you don't have one of these installed? Good for up to 5 PSI.

It is possible that at 120 enough positive pressure was created by the intake to read on the gauge.

What kind of gauge is it?

no your not lost at all, its pretty clear N/A with boost gauge.
i got a DEFI temp gauge, boost, and pressure all for $240 so i bought them all. It was too cheap to pass on a deal.
