I has boost meter, and no boost in my new VR6
I just got my car a little bit ago...so i bought a couple gauges...in the picture i just have the boost gauge installed...but there is also an oil temp there now too.
But anyways, How come every time i give it some gas i never go past zero...is there a leak some where...?

It's a pity they locked that one down.... it could been really fun 
Although now I know why VR6's are so slow, know I know - I had wondered whether they were turbos...

No... It must be a VR6 Golf or Bora. Hence the title VR6. Turbo must be aftermarket.

Well, despite his ignorance he at least had a decent gauge that would display vacuum and boost. I blame factory boost displays for lulling many into forgetting that "negative boost" exists.
