Not always acurate

It\'s a good gauge, I think I woud rather have another gauge that is known to be alittle bit more acurate.

Pros:
|
Easy to install
|
|
Cons:
|
Units, back lit a different color then the rest of the dash
|
|
It serves its purpose, however i wish it would read out in imperial units. Another annoying thing is that it is backlit white, when the rest of the dash is back lit green. You\'d figure that the factory boost guage would match, but not in this case.

Pros:
|
Good position for a gauge, OEM product
|
|
Cons:
|
Small to see, does not measure in psi/bar, EXPENSIVE
|
|
This is the OEM Subaru Boost Gauge that comes with many of the imprezas. To be quite honest, the best deal is really to buy it used if you must have it because it is defnitely not worth the $250 dealerships will charge you for it. It is small, has the wrong backlight (white, not green), and does not measure in units people are familiar with.
If you can\'t find it used, it would still be cheaper to buy a different brand with a different holder and it still would be cheaper. If you can find it, you\'ll find its adequate enough for lightly tuned cars.

Pros:

Good location, matches stock interior
|
|
Cons:
|
Not accurate, illumination is not as good as other gauges
|
|
I had this installed at the dealer but in hindsight I should have put an aftermarket gauge in. The readings seem to be a little inconsistent. Go for the omori or other aftermarket gauge. Cheaper and more accurate. This is better than nothing.

probably not the most accurate and it doesn\\\'t read in psi.

Clean stock look but if my car didn\'t come with it I think I would have bought a different one.

Pros:

Looks cool, easy to read at night
|
|
Cons:
|
bad placement
|
|
This gauge looks cool, but simply put the cons overdo the pro's here. The placement of this gauge is near impossible to read, idk about anybody else but looking down at the steering wheel during acceleration is one of the stupidest things ever. If your serious about enhancing boost and need to see whats going on get a more accurate and more sensibly mounted one.

came with the car, doesn't look ricey
|
|
Cons:
|
not very accurate
|

If you're looking at installing one in your car, don't. Go with aftermarket. Most of them I've seen don't read accurately, including mine. But mine came with the car so I can't complain too much. On the plus side girls are always looking over your shoulder in the car asking what it is.

Small and very accurate + in Bars... JDM yo!
|
|
Cons:
|
Green glow doesn't match stock WRX green...its like a faded yellow.
|
|
I originally went with aftermarket gauges and a triple dash pod, then changed my mind and went with a nice OEM stock look. The gauge is accurate according to my Cobb Access Port V2 and is mechanical... so the needle moves extremely quick. I would recommend this gauge for anyone looking for a nice stock, clean gauge.
