I need two gauges (boost and EGT). Since these gauges will be mounted on the steering column, they need to match the stock gauges as closely as possible. What are my best options in 52mm? Preferably electronic, but thats not a deal breaker.

 

My VDO gauges from 42 Draft Designs are pretty close to stock. They've got a black background, white letters, and orange hands. Pretty close match to stock if you choose the red LED backlighting.

My Autometer boost gauge matches perfectly. Black background, red lighting. It looks the same. www. summitracing.com

 

The Defi D guages in black look like they match pretty well and light up the same color as the stock cluster. But I dont know how precise they are.

 

autometer pro comp ultra lite's are good. Vdoo fits perfect with the OEM gauge cluster. Defi's good, but expensive.

Voodoo gauges are fairely acurate from what I heard. I have the autometer ProComp ultra lite and that's what the professionals use.

 

I have the defi d series boost gauge in black on my steering column, and i've had a number of people ask if it was a stock gauge! It looks great during the day and lights orange at night just like stock! i love mine!

 

yeh, the autometer ultra lite back lit light sux. But defi is a lot of money. $200+ for a boost gauge is rediculous. I bought my autometer for $100, that's including the steering column mounting bracket holder. and it's fairely accurate before 25 psi. it goes up to 30.

 

There is a new amber Defi BF gauges designed for the Evo and new Spec C in Japan.




If the ignition is off, the gauges just look black.


Personally, I prefer the BF white/red colors
:P

 

Yep they are pretty close. I have the same set-up from 42 Draft Designs.

 

What size VDO gauges fit the stock 3 gauge panel? I want to replace the boost gauge with oil pressure (as I have zeitronix boost, afr, and egt on the steering column)?

 

defi gauges match perfectly....imo

 

holy back from the dead thread batman....

...defi is pretty good, I love mine and you can get them in 52

 

defi ftw!
