Auto Meter Mechanical Boost Gauge 6104 Cobalt LED Turbo Gauge

Description

Product Overview

The Auto Meter 6104 Cobalt Mechanical Boost Gauge is a precision instrument designed for turbocharged engines. Constructed from high‑impact plastic with a painted exterior, it houses a robust mechanical movement that translates boost pressure into an easy‑to‑read dial. A modern blue LED illuminates the dial through the glass, ensuring visibility in low‑light conditions. Dimensions are a compact 3.94 x 3.94 x 3.94 inches and it weighs just 9.6 ounces, making it simple to mount in tight engine bays.

Usage

This gauge is perfect for street cars, track day vehicles, and dedicated race cars. Because it operates mechanically, there is no need to tap into the vehicle’s electrical system, allowing installation on any platform. Whether you are tuning a daily driver or monitoring boost on a competition turbo, the gauge provides instant, accurate feedback. It thrives in harsh environments, resisting vibration and temperature extremes common on the track.
