Re: gauges

Yes, I have Pro Comps. I got them from e-gauges a sponsor of the site for the same or better pricing, while supporting a sponsor. Isspro and Di pricol are good too, I just wanted 2 5/8 gauges or I would probably went Isspro.

I've got Autometers as well. No real issues. The boost gauge will stick the first time if I haven't driven it in a while. If I tap on it, its good to go the rest of the time it's driven until I park it for a while again.

Re: gauges

I have Autometer Pro Comp's as well, they are good gauges along with all the other leading brands, its whatever is appealing to you since you have to look at them almost every second you are behind the wheel [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]

Re: gauges

I just recently added some autometer ultra-lites, and i love them!! They look awsome and perform the same way. Autometer stands behind their product. I was missing some parts when i got my gauges, so i called them about it. They sent me my parts no questions asked for free.

Re: gauges

i've got autometer ultra-lites and love them only thing i don't like is i baught the 0-60psi boost gauge wich realy starts at 5psi [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/mad.gif[/img]and i should have got the 0-30 (or 35 i can't remember) because i'll never see over 35psi and i would like to see my boost at the lower end so you might consider that

thats my .02
