Question Gauges

Ok, since I do not know how to make a fancy poll (yes I have read how to but cant find the option) I have searched and haven't seen any polls for gauges so...

I am looking to replace my shitass gauges that just seem to break. I would like feeback on what you would purchase and why. If you already have any please leave some feedback! Any comments and advice will help! Looking for price, reliablility, and quality aspects.


AEM
APEXi
Autometer
Blitz
Defi
GlowShift
GReddy
HKS
Innovate
S-Gear
Tomei

Defi, quality, easy install, one of the most accurate gauges out there, adjustatabiliy with brightness, peak/warning function.

Plain and simple Defi.

Ive had nothing but good experiences with my STRI Gauges.

Affordable, accurate and physically appealing as well..

But depending on budget, you really cant beat Defi...

never had a problem with autometer. sunpro is cheap ass autozone bullshit. my first boost gauge was sunpro and the needle would get stuck so i would have to tap on the gauge to get it to read right

I hate the stri gauge I have. It will not sit at zero after it goes through it calibration on start up. So the boost it reads is always off by 1lb or so.

Got it brand new but it stayed in the box for a few years till I got around to use it. No dice on taking it back lol. I was trying to be cheap back then and not pay for the defi boost gauge. I tried to contact stri but didn't get a reply. I just found a use Defi boost same color as my others so I'll be putting that in soon and selling this gauge.

STRi, or Defi.
And I LOL'd at all the people making comments about installing gauges. If you can't install a gauge.. you shouldn't be working on cars.

I am biased.

Personal preference for looks is Stack, which is why I have them in my car.

I have to say I like the ProSport gauges because of the experience I had with them on my cousins STi, but these Stack Pro-Control gauges look amazing. I like the features and options available also.
