Default Ebay boost and oil gauge and bov

i saw a boost and oil pressure gauge on ebay they look alright i was wondering if anybody has tried them. i think they should be alright . oh and bot both and gauge pillers it was only 70 dollas! so it seems like a hella good deal but iam weary.

another question ... what about egay's BOV? they seem to be ok as well but havent heard much on them

thanks

I wouldn't trust anything from ebay unless it was a reputable name brand. Look at autometer sport comp series gauges. I run those and they are cheap but reliable.

Something important like an oil pressure gauge and boost gauge you're gonna want them to be of decent quality as what they read will effect your engine's health.

Used name brand gauges = $40 each.

Egay's bov is exactly that, a poor quality bov that either surges or breaks in a short time span.

Used greddy type-s bov for $100 bucks all day or Dsm bov for $15 bucks.
