Prosport's gauges are better in my opinion. Haven't heard much people using glowshifts.

I use them. There good to give an idea of what is going on in your car but not really precise.Don't rely only on them to tune.But they do give a nice look.

They seam like a good option for someone looking 2 save a few bucks but have some gauges. But like said before, not going to be perfect. Will be able 2 tell you if something is going wrong or something tho.

Get what you pay for. They are cheap and not accurate. I would not recommend them to anyone. Save a little more and go for prostreet..not very accurate either but better. I'm went from a defi to a prosport and it's only 2 psi off. But even my 200$+ defi was off by 3psi.

I threw my glowshift gauges in the trash to get some prosports. I wouldn't recommend the glowshift to anyone. Very unreliable, mind didn't even work right, the boost gauge got stuck all the time.
