optional gauge cluster....

Hey i wanted to know whether you guys think the optional gauge cluster from Mitsubishi is worth the money or not. It shows VOLT, TEMP, and BOOST.

But what i really wanted was EGT, OIL PRESSURE, and BOOST. You guys think its worth $250 or not? Im thinkin about getting this bc of my 6 year warranty. Id rather get mitsubishi products and have them not ***** at me bc i got aftermarket products.

SO IS IT WORTH $250 OR NOT?!?!

YES- That is a good deal. i think the msrp is about $480. I have them in my oz and they're awesome (even though i have no use for them)

I have the sport meter kit but will soon be replacing it with 3 Defi gauges and Craig Hardy's custom gauge panel:

Go for the more accurate aftermarket gauges. It's money better spent for gauges where you can choice which ones you want, but the placement may be optimal from the factory holder. I can't view Craig Hardy's panel though but I'm very interested to see what that will look like with 3 Defi gauges!

HIT... I forked over $239.99 for just a boost gauge for my Audi, even at $480 or whatever it is worth it. Try peiceing together high quality gauges together yourself plus pods etc, and a clean way to integrate it into the interior and I think you will run way over $480, not to mention $250.
