Autometer boost gauges tend to take a shit more often than other brands.

i don't know about toyota (although I should as an ex supra owner h: ) but many OEM boost guages lie. They don't actually read boost or vacuum pressure, but "guess" based on RPM, throttle position, and what the ecu is telling them.
