The dial type gauges must be calibrated even when the temperature changes, and that is a pain in the ass IMO.
So is this MP non-mercury sync tool worth the money? Theya re similiar in price to the emgo gauges and quite frankly I'd choose Motion Pro over Emgo in terms of quality...

Im going to order MERCURY for my REAL guages. Mecury is the very best Ive ever used, no bouncing guages, air in tubes or glitchy digital crap either.
Im still pissed off about those crap MotionPro blue glycol safe garbage.

You need to have damping by using a restricter (smaller diameter tube inline to your normal gauge hose close to the carb side). This will dampen the fluctuations.
As for the Motion Pro fluid type gauges, people here either love'm or hate'm. I have the Morgan carbtune which use a mechanical design and love them. And that seems to be the consensus with everyone here that has used them.
