Hi guys Just Wondering if there is any point in getting a boost gauge and also how does it help?! I have tried looking online but the explanations are not fantastic. I hoped someone on here who has one could tell me the benefits of it? any help much appreicated!

I think these days will all the electronic ways of getting boost reading (albeit perhaps not as finitely accurate as an actual guage), they are a bit moot.
If I had the Highline cluster I'd go with a fiscon to show all the ECU stuff.
I'm currently using the Torque android app via OBD2 bluetooth, works quite well, haven't Fully tested it yet though.

Where do you get the app from? Is it on iPhones? :confused:

Not sure if it's on iOS, here's the Android app link to cross ref. in the Apple store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.prowl.torque&hl=en
You will need a OBD2 Bluetooth adaptor too, this is the one I bought: http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B006JJZVQE/ref=oh_details_o03_s00_i00
