Gauge question...

Before you ask, yes i did a search. Many searches in fact....

I've been trying to do my homework and can't seem to find a nice set of gauges that have what I want. I am looking to get an air/fuel, EGT, and boost. I would prefer a black face w/ green backlight to match my 04's display.

Just wanted to add that I'd like to stay within a reasonable price range.


Any recommendations, comments, thoughts, concerns?

Autometer makes the most cost effective ones in that color scheme. But you kind of get what you pay for they are nothing special. Here are pics of so setupsk, you will find my autometer set up in there.

i really like the defi links, but they do not make an air/fuel. would it look funny to have two defi's and an autometer air/fuel (given this is a digital display so it would look different anyway) in the same pod?

i agree defi are the best out there, but they are not cheap. If I had the money or drive to do mine over again I would go all the way defi and a sti gauge cluster that matches

I think i might save some money and only go with two gauges and the autometer pod. i really don't think i need air/fuel. with turboback, a new TMIC, and intake pipe, i really do not think i'm modded enough to really use all these gauges. i really think all i need is EGT and boost. now the controversy is what color i should get....

the defi link's green is a bit off....might as well get blue or white if the color's going to be off a bit. any thoughts?

hey man just a opinion maybe you should buy a oil temp or oil pressure instead of a airfuel ratio because with egt you get ideas of you rich /lean mix air fuel wont give you a acurate reading no mater what gauge unless you use wide band o2 sensor just a thought
