Default Gauges

Ok at some point soon I plan on putting together a turbo kit for my car. I am going to need some gauges and I very much like the Glowshift gauges...BUT they suck. I love the looks of the LED's and the black face when powered down. Also, I have heard Prosport aren't very good quality either. Are there any gauges that are that design but are actually worth buying? Thanks.

defi are great!! I have prosport personally and have never had an issue with the gauges themselves... There's not much difference really but if you held a defi and prosport next to eachother then you just know which one is better quality etc. But can't know what looks good, works and is pretty accurate!!

I have the AEM gauges and love them. PLX makes good gauges as well. I like the digital stuff better because I find them to be more accurate, as analog gauges cost more to make, and 90% of the analog gauges on the market are cheap internally, and IMHO, not reliable.

Get the aem gauges. I have the aem wideband and aem serial gauges. Definitely my favorite.

especially if you get an AEM EMS

... without AEM EMS = Defi all the way with a PLX Wideband
