This seems to be a common thread here.

Looking for something inexpensive…no $300 Defi gauges (going on the 200)

Red & black would be ideal to match factory gauges.

Prosports or Glowshifts…

I have glowshifts… not bad ta all… Tinted gauge… 7 colors… look nice… perform well

Prosports are very popular and would match the scoobs dash nicely…

GLowshift boost gauge is about 30 bucks… Prosport gauge is about 50

Ahh Idk just looking at your sig…

heres what the glowshifts look like when their off

BTW… Glowshift is a newer company… did a lot of research on the quality and accuracy of their gauges cuz they seemed so cheap…

Every review ive read has been great… I havent had a single issue…

Prosports look almost identical, they cost a lil more… either one I think would be perfect

No, I just need something thats not digital for accuracy. I don’t have much faith in the laggy factory unit, and it doesn’t read higher than 2.5bar :lol

thats only 1.5 bar positive pressure, you know that right?

the audis read up to 1bar (ATM pressure) before it registers boost pressure.

Id love to take you up on that but Im looking for something a little more inexpensive.

\<$50 would be cool - might snag a small autometer one to hide somewhere

Sunpro is cheap as hell but always been accurate for me. $15 can’t go wrong. I have one you can have for free it’s white face though.
