Best/most useful defi gauges for the money?!?

Hey just looking for suggestions on what everyone thinks are the most useful gauges from the defi brand.. sorry if this has been asked over and over. I personally could not find anything close to my questions.


I already have an aem air/fuel gauge, and an aem boost gauge so i was wondering if/when i get defi gauges, as to which ones i should get!

I can only choose 3 out of the: Oil pressure, oil temp, fuel pressure, ext temp, water temp, etc.

Which 3 are the best/most useful to get??


Thanks in advance!!

If you ever need ext temp and oil pressure, let me know. I am selling my gauge set up. It's defi advance cr series.

It never ceases to amaze me the look on peoples face when I tell them how much boost I run and they are just shocked. Especially when I say 30 PSI is too low for a gauge.

Thanks! Yeah the defi 30 psi won't do me any good. I already have an aem that I'm going to keep for boost.

I was thinking ext temp, fuel pressure and water temp? Or are those not quite worth it?

those arent on the top of my list,

a/f, boost, oil pressure. will let u know a lot.

the first 2, important for tuning, the last to be safe about oil pressure.

oil pressure, water temp, fuel pressure would be my next choices if you already have boost and a/f.

Oil temp would be another option besides fuel pressure.
