I have one you can have. Just got to dig it out of the garage. Call it a free gift with the stuff you are picking up!

Newage sensors don't click when you connect the green plugs, you have to run a feed directly from the battery to get them to pulse mate. Did mine last week!

what exactly is "underboosting?" ie, is it 0psi? 8psi? 12psi?
