Best VAC/BOOST Gauge

Guys,

Looking to buy a vac/boost gauge for the stang.

I like glowshift and or autometer.

Glowshift after doing some research appears to crap out after a year.

Autometer seems to be great quality but doesn't look as nice to me.

Both are reasonably priced but does anyone know of another brand that is priced the same and has great quality?

Anything in particular I should be looking out for?


Looking to get the below gauge pod for the steering wheel.

I use an interceptor scan gauge for my boost on one of it's analog inputs , there's a boost parameter on the gauge but it only works for a GT500 computer. Each gauge has two fields you can display constantly , or you can set it up to cycle through a list of parameters you've selected. I've got two gauges which would work out nicely with the pod you want

I've only every used Autometer gauges. I currently have the Cobalt ones in a SOS dual pillar pod setup. 3+ yrs so far and no problems.

Your welcome! you can't go wrong with the Auto Meter gauges.. their customer service is awesome also.. and tech support is the best..
the best part on the Nexus series is you can change the color of the gauge,just like the my color feature...
