Boost Gauge

[bobopud]

What gauges does everyone have and wha to you like/dislike about them.

I just bought a vent gauge pod (52mm) off of a guy on 6club, so I am looking at gauges right now. The one that has caught my eye so far is the VEI Hi-Res Gauge.

VEI digital gauge comes in either blue or red led, is 52mm, and is reasonably priced... I think mine was $75 or so, works great, and looks awesome

Autometer, Nexus series. I had the same one in my previous car. I love it! Just haven't had time to install this bad boy yet. Watch the demo. Adding a SD card is a sweet plus for it. Looks better than any boost gauge I have had or seen....

Agreed, but not too bad when you can get it at cost. Less than half of retail ;-)

Don't you have to install a box with it as well?

It really looks nice, but I can't justify spending that much on a boost gauge.

Yes, it's not a mechanical gauge. It's electrical.

I run a ProSport....good and inexpensive gauge......Streetunit has the mechanical for around $40....

I have a VEI hi-res in red. I'll be installing this weekend if mine gets in on time.

How much was your's Rich? I can only find it on vgauges.com for close to $120 for the hi-res in red.

Try 7AKRZA for a discount code. If it works, then great

Great guys, great prices.

The Defi Red racer series are really sweet also.

Heck no....the whites much much better looking. When I become boosted I'm gonna go with defi. White. Gives it a nice OEM feel compared to the 8's instrument cluster. Not sure how the 6's and 3's look like but I would go with a guage that looked as close to OEM as possible.

Red matches the MS6 ;-)

That's the Link series = Biggggg bucks

Thanks for the insight. I think I'll be going with the VEI Hi res in red. Close to stock gauge and the price is resonable, plus the digital readout will be a little easier to read that the dial kind.

Thanks.
