Boost Gauge

Metric

English

For the CTS-V, this gauge is located
in the instrument panel cluster.

This gauge indicates positive
manifold pressure, which is the
induction air pressure level in the
intake manifold before it enters the
combustion chamber. This gauge
reads zero under light throttle before
boost is generated.

The gauge automatically resets to
zero every time the engine is
started.
