Default Need some opinions on boost gauges etc...>>>

Okay well what do you guys think I should get? A analog boost gauge or digital?

Option 1
Should I wait on T-carbon's Gauge Mount and go with the Defi BF gauges?

Option 2
Get the EFU from techreation, and have everything nice and clean?

Everyone's thoughts and opinions welcome.

Thank You

Default If you have money to burn, go with Defi they are worth it. If not, get a cheaper mechanical gauge.

I don't think EFU is worth it and I prefer the look/function of a full sweep analog gauge placed in a more convenient location.

Analog. Ever seen a digital in action? Not very useful or intuitive. Nice lightshow though

1) T-Carbon and others are loking to fit 52mm gauges. BF are 60mm. A 60mm in that spot even if the holder would carry them would look out of place. How many months/years you willing to wait for this solution?

2) Nice idea, poor way to monitor boost. 2001's and earlier only.

Scroll down and watch the Video...Bet it make you dizzy!<ul><li><a href="http://www.wak-tt.com/mods/boostgauge/boostgauge.htm">Wak's digital gauge</a></li></ul>
