Looking for recommendations for gauges themselves also. I was thinking about going with the glowshifts as of now

i have the aero force guage that plugs into the OBD2 port. i like it. though when i got it it didnt work and took them about 4 weeks to get it back, in which i didnt hear from them once during that 4 weeks. other then that it is a good gauge. i also went with a Air to fuel ratio attachment for it. it reads a lot of stats and is easy to use.

hmm that is a pretty awesome gauge. I think the main two im looking to have are trans temp and fuel pressure.

i use aem guages. boost,trans,and a/f.they have white or black faces. the white matches the factory dash pretty good. never had any problems with any of them.

Don't buy glowshifts. For something like gauges don't cheap out, unless you're just buying them to look cool I guess....

The internet is full of glowshift problems/failures.

do not buy glow ****! yes the price is amazing, but there is a reason, you get what you pay for.

if I were to buy analog gauges it would be auto meter factory match.

isspro isnt a bad choice either. I havent checked into the aeroforce much to have an opinion on those.

I used a glowshift for a while cause it had a blue back light option. It worked fine for a trans temp gauge. Pretty accurate too. Now I have a aeroforce interceptor and I love this thing, its got options for damn near everything, and it plugs right into obdII slot and reads right fron the puter.

IMHO opinion glowshifts arent bad, ive seen worse out there. Like I said my trans temp one was a few degrees off but close enough to know...
