i run the greddy 60mm warning meters. i have no complaints, but that does not mean that other brands do not work just as well.

That Defi concept looks PIMP!!! I have a thing for Defi and hope to gets their guages someday. My vote goes to the most responsive guages on the market .

Ive used autometer for 15 years and have never had a problem. The Defi are nice but you dont "need" them. Ive used both. The Autometer do the job well and have been race proven over the years. To be honest Im not that fond of the look of many of the Japanese made guages.

Check out the Apexi EL serires. They look hot and work great. very accurate. I did alot of research before I went with them.

I just got Defi D-Link Series. Looks awsome and a little cheaper then the BF series. Comes in Black and White faces and choice of International or US specs.

I picked up an autometer ultralite CF gauge and have had no issues with it. Like others have said, if it weren't accurate why in the world are IHRA and NASCAR racers using them?

The Apex'i El gauges are nice, but costs you a leg and a arm. I got the Mech in PSI and its really a nice gauge.

The gauges are readily available from J-spec tuning.

We use Autometer in nascar because most teams get them for free and they are one of three companies (that I know of)that are approved in Nextel Cup. The other two are stewart-warner and VDO. Believe me if we could use something better we would.
