Boost Gauge

The boost gauge, available only with the Pontiac U2F gauges cluster, displays the engine intake manifold vacuum or pressure. This indicates the proper operation of the supercharger.

The boost gauge is an electronically-controlled air core display that receives input from the Boost/Manifold Absolute Pressure (MAP) sensor as a variable voltage proportional to the manifold vacuum or pressure.
