Default Gauge cluster for 2006 SI

Good afternoon,

I am in the process of creating a custom gauge console for my 2006 SI. I already know I want to have a boost gauge, but need recommendations for other gauges. The console will probably be able to hold 3 gauges in total (2.5 to 3 inch Diameter).

If anyone could suggest a couple other key gauges (Oil Pressure?, ect) and a couple a good manufacturers, it would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance

Defi makes great gauges.

Boost, oil pressure, and EGT are "good" for boosted cars. A wideband 02 setup is something to look into aswell.

If I was to ever install gauges in my car, I'd definately go with Defi black face gauges.

Defi BF series. Add the control unit, heads up display and you have the best of the best. There are other full sweep gauges out there, but nothing touches the quality, style, and functionality of Defi. Nothing.

Thanks for the recommendations. I went out looked at the Defi gauges. I like those, they look good and are the right side.

The gauges I looked at in particular were:

DF04304 - Boost Gauge
DF04404 - Oil Pressure Gauge
DF04804 - EGT (I think). Not really sure what this gauge measures (Exhaust Gas Temperature?)

Thanks for the input. Once I finish Retroing the Consol, I will post some pic's.
