Tuners!! Accuracy of WBC gauge?

How accurate is the 2 1/16 gauge provided in the kit. I dont have a laptop to data log into and probally wont for a little while. I'll be depending on the gauge to keep a eye on things. Is it spot on or does it vary a few points either direction?

How accurate is the gauge compared to the read out it gives you on the laptop software?

It's the same as best I can tell.

I set my warning light to go on below 12.0, that way when I'm in boost I know the light should be on.

I really like the guage, and I think it's a great tool. Even if it's not perfect it's still nice to have a ballpark, but my experience has been that it's pretty much ***** - on.

It's not the same on mine. The analog output is .4 to .5 richer than the gauge. So which is correct? Dynojet says the analog is gospel, and to trust that. Their datalogger and gauge match, but their analog output (which they tell me to trust) is richer.

Could just be my gauge, not necessarily all of them.

Yeah, I just checked an old log, and remember the specific one.

Mine seems really close.

Mine's pretty close. I would say at least .2 of each other.
