Half a bar out??? Bloody. I/we run TIM gauges in our track cars and have found them to be really good and accurate. Maybe a "BAD" unit??

1/2 bar... is that all!!!  I've had a couple of bad'uns and sent them back to TIM (well the importers), who give them credit changed them without a problem...

However... the interesting thing is that they don't have the abilty to test them - and orignally the bloke on the phone was a bit funny, until he found out how I'd tested them!!!  (a rather expensive, fully calibrated set-up lol  :wink: )

I haven't (apart from the ones I sell  :wink: ) come across any after market boost guages that actually read correctly.  Most are passble to about 1bar, then just get completely mixed up!!!
