Ok thanks for all the input, i noticed the AEM gauges say you can customize how they look or somethin, what exactly does this mean? different colored face plates?

Note. The Truboost and the Uego are not the same brightness level. However this does not detract from their functionality, I noticed it for about 5 minutes and my brain ignores it now. I love the peak hold function of the Truboost, very useful feature.

Good Call...I wasn't even thinking of that. It is the Tru-Boost. I'm only using it as a gauge so I confused myself...

I def. agree on the peak hold...that's pretty much all I use it for...I just need an AEM Standalone now.

And on the customizing...they come with two rings: silver, black. As well as different faceplates: white, black and the wideband reverse side is lambda...nice if you decide to dd with methanol

no different than a needle hopping around

I have both regular needle type gauges and an aem uego and they don't bother my eyes any different

I have an aem boost and oil pressure gauge sitting in my room to add to the uego

Aem wideband. Very good unit. I'd suggest checking vendors on here for them. I know speedcorps has them for $215 shipped.

The reason for the difference in brightness is that the AEM UEGO has a photosensor that will adjust with ambient light. I am going with the UEGO, regular boost, and voltmeter. Going to have the boost and volt hooked up to a switch so there is not a lot of light in the cabin during night driving. Hope this works out well (if anyone sees any issues please let me know). Does the range really only read from 10.0 - 17.0? AEM's webisite does not specify.
