How do these work & how accurate are they? I'm talking about the ones in GAUGE form:

?? I haven't got an account with them....just did a google search on the apexi power meter prior to asking on here & pretty much only got one result that meant anything:

https://secure.fiftybelow.com/archerracing/index.cfm?page=item-detail&ID=APEX%20POWER&storeid=1

Thought it easier to link the image, my guess is if you vist that site then maybe you'll be able to see the image when you come back on here?

I measure power I guess.....in PS so 1 ps is roughly .74 kw's.

First time I hear of one but I found a better picture:

I think this one is for a Supra? Im not sure but I saw it on an order page and it asks for the vehicle model so maybe it just bases it on known stock power figures and rpm.

The guy selling says they are very rare and they don't make them anymore (Maybe they sucked or something, lol) and he wants 150US for it.
I live my life 1000RPM at a time. Nothing else matters, not the blown piston rings, the wasted distributor, the popping oil cap and all that other stuff. For those 8000RPM or more, im free.

Ahhh...that makes a bit more sense, I can see that black box that goes with it, I have one in one of our cars & I noticed that black box in the glove box....thought it was part of the RSM but now I see it goes with the gauge.

The gauge in our car works fine, just wondering how accurate it might be :)
