Which boost gauge?
Hey Guys, for those of you with superchargers on your C7's, which boost gauges are you using? I am in the process of installing a pro charger kit and I wanna keep an eye on boost. Are there any new ideas out there verses the big old ugly gauges?

Go with the nGauge if the boost pressure is piped into the OBD2 system. It's suction mount and will give you every parameter you could want. Up to 6 gauges (out of hundreds) can be displayed at once. Boost and IAT are good to watch. Knock is another.

Believe it or not, but the Banks (yes, the diesel people), make a great OBD gauge that can read boost (not just MAP) AND can read an added Ethanol sensor. I bought one in August and it works great.

That Banks unit is pretty trick!
Banks has always made good stuff.

I use the NGauge and mounted it flush in the cubby behind the display. Works great and is fully functional with HP Tuners.
