Boost gauge issues still

I called autometer, they said the gauge should not be bad. I'm going to try a small piece of hose with gauge sitting on the cowl, and put an oring on the fitting I put in the intake to make sure it is sealed up. Any other ideas guys?

I hear you c00n, the guy on the phone really didn't impress me with the help. But I did notice today that the gauge didn't bounce as bad.

worse case, i can swap my rigged gauge into yours on the 10th to see if it acts up running a known good part or not. at least then you will have some ammo when you call them back

I have to wait till the weekend to do anything, but the shop air is something i didn't think of. I'll try that then if nothing maybe we can see on the 10th.
