Aftermarket boost guage?

[Terminator2026]

HI, i am looking to buy an aftermarket gauge and really do not have any experience in knowing what gauge would be better then another. my question is what kind of gauge should i get/do you have and would u recommend your setup to me. I am looking to spend under 150 dollars if possible.

Autozone gauges have worked fine in all te applications I have seen. I was going to pick one up as soon as I can get my car running right

Autometer mechanical, simple reliable and inexpensive. Autozone usually carries their Pro-Comp UltraLite series for $30-$40. I've had mine for years and it just works.

Glowshift has very good looking once, I used to have them in my set up, But Unfortunately the back of the gauge was hitting the frame and was kind of annoying (gauge was to long).

I have no choice but to replace it with some AEM, they are almost half short and fixed my annoying problem, But I never had any malfunction problem with the old set up (Glowshift).

Check out prosport. After doing a lot of research on gauges I've really grown to like Prosports. Great looking and at a good price. I especially like the Evo series.

Glowshift gauges are junk. Their boost gauge might be ok since its pretty simple.

Autometer gauges are good so are Defi and Stack.

You get what you pay for.

Autozone it, Boost gauges are simple. No reason to over spend, that money can go to more fun parts

I went with AEM, I do believe in you get what you pay for hopefully itl pay off

False, Glowshift gauges are more than fine for his application.

I don't believe in this at all.

The cheap ones have poor back lighting or the back lighting is too bright and you can't see the needle at night. The cheap ones also have a plastic barb or a fitting that uses that hard nylon tubing that makes it difficult to connect to a vacuum source.

The nice ones use a metal barb on the back of the gauge or are electronic.

Enless its a show car, or you only drive at night its hard to convince me $20 plus more dollars is worth it just for a boost gauge. I have a autometer, easy install, and pocket friendly price $35

Go with glow shift im pushing 250 more or less stock you get 3 gauges plus the pod and can add a wiring harness for about 130 or close to that. I've had zero problems, my buddies use them no problems there. And if you spending your hard earned cash they look nice and add a little extra to the interior in my opinion.

I think you made a good chocie with going AEM. They have proven there name for years with good products. A little pricey but worth it you will be happy with your purchase.

get an autometer 30/30 for 50 bucks off ebay and call it a day

I've been very pleased with the Prosport gauges and they match the interior lighting fairly close. Super easy to install as with any boost gauge.

I also went with AEM, but I was looking to match my wideband and oil pressure gauges. I also needed a gauge that would read over 30psi. The AEM -30 to 50 fit my criteria. Plus it looks good doing it.

I prefer Autometer Cobalt gauges. The colors match what I'm doing to my lighting and I like Autometer gauges anyway. They can be a bit pricey for some, but I can deal with it. I'm getting some next week too.

These!!! Love the EVO gauges. Especially the digital boost gauge. Keeps all hoses in the hood, just a wire to the cockpit for the gauge. Very accurate.
