IS that Knock one basically an A/F gauge?

My guess is its an A/F and the knock light is that lonely green one in the bottom....

Nope its just a Knock Gauge the one green light at the bottom is always on. then as you get more knock the lights go from the green to red. It has nothing to do with Air/Fuel

Those look suspiciously like Autometer boxes and labels... are these made by them?

nope they are true Stewart Warner. Autometer and Stewart Warner are way different... Stewart Warner comes now in a lot of cars that are turbod from the factory, like the new EVO's.... Also a lot of performance/sport cars use them...
I got the idea for them from my dads 87 Buick Gnx. But the difference from my boost gauge to his is, my'n goes to 15psi.. His goes to 40psi.
And by no means am I knocking Autometer, I know a lot of people who use them and they work fine... but from searching around and asking people about the two.. They all say Stewart Warner gauges are a lot better then autometer.

:rofl: allot betteryou think? think of this> most 'performance' cars as you would say, would find that gauge useless because they make almost double then 15 psi.. from my experience anyways

not many street cars use 30 psi daily driven, as for the whole autometer debate...

some say they are slower reacting, i don't know as i've never used any autometer guages besides a/f (which is completely useless btw), i personally got my guages (greddy) as they were cheaper at the time.

ahah wow your stupid.. 15psi is the lowest boost psi you can get.. my dad has a 40psi version exactly like my'n
