Dipricol booost gauge buzz?

I put a set of Dipricol optix gauges in my truck last year. The boost gauge made a buzzing noise similar to a reed buzzing under high boost. I called the company I bought them from who were no help and then called Dipricol, who exchanged it for me saying some noise was normal but they would exchange it anyway. The new one was just as bad so I figured I would just live with it. Now however it has gotten to the point that anytime it is reading above 0psi it buzzes. So basically unless I am sititing still at a light or with the clutch in it buzzes. It is really annoying.

Anyone else have this issue? BTW I have checked all my fittings and connections using soapy water, no leaks found.

Mine did the same thing....you need a snubber on it. I can't remember where I got it, but it's fine now.

I've had/have the same problem with the boost gauge. Had Isspro before on previous trucks and they always did it. They said it was a bad gauge and would always replace it. Now I have DiPricol and it does the same thing and has since it was new. I am going to keep bugging them until I get one that doesn't. I've also thought about putting a needle valve on.
