WTB boost gauge,...

Im disliking the Megan boost gauge I got now,..real hard to see during the daylight,..

Looking for gauge that doesnt need a control unit as that is kinda overboard for me,..Simple mechanical or electrical gauge is fine, would like a white face gauge though with silver bezel if you got it,.....Got Defi D, Apex,???...

Post what you got as I went to Vakamon and mostly they had BF gauges right now,..thanks,..

Id be happy with a regular gauge,..Some LGT.com members have had some trouble with seeing the gauge in the sun too, but I havent had the experience,...
The Defi BF series is really nice, though kinda overkill for me as I dont need any extra gauges to monitor, nor want to spend $200 for a boost gauge and $100 for control unit. $300 (cheapest online not incl shipping) is too much to see how much boost Im running,...The Omori full color gauge looks good and Im leaning that way though the 45mm is smaller than the 52 I was hoping for,....

Hmm

maybe your interested in a boost gauge/ Boost contoller that is in excellent condition. By the name of SBC-ID III which also has excellent daytime viewing w/ dimming feturs and much, much more for a measly 300 bucks for me to install and drive to your door.

Nah,..too extravagant for me,...Dont need a EBC either as Im saving for an AP later and hopefully there will be other "tuner" maps available other than just COBB's one,...

Still looking for gauge locally if anyone has,..no rush yet to go out an buy an Omori yet though,..
