Send AWE an email. I found Mike to be very helpful recently when trying to buy one of these gauges (although he wouldn't sell them as Regal have paid a premium for being the sole importer :( ).

Where did you get your boost gauge at the weekend?

I been waiting for regal since before xmas. he phoned me up beginning of February, and said it would arrive in 7days. Rang him yesterday, and he now says they are on backorder again, and cant give me a firm date for delivery. Bloody great service, and unfortunately no one else you can deal with.

To be fair it's not Regal's fault, AWE are having problems with supply.

I've got a couple of these for sale in Classifieds - http://www.rs246.com/index.php?name=PNp ... ic&t=68667

Got to love my sister. First she gives me an Xbox 360 for my birthday last week, then she fills her suitcase up with car parts for me when she was in America.

My AWE gauge is a few years old now, but has been fine.

Nice! I think I'd like to love your sister too ... any pics? :lol:

P.S. Had my AWE boost gauge for 18 months or so - never had a problem, and it 'zeroes' perfectly.
