im considering putting in defi gauges.but is the quality of the gauge worth what it cost.oh and ill be putting them into a ek so if anybody got any pics of the setup please post.not really looking for the a pillar setup though. thanks

 

oh yeah which gauges are essential with a turbo car.. i know boost air/fuel ration
and oil pressure. any other. becuase i dont want to many gauges.

 

defi gauges have proven themselves to be very good.

You will need a Boost and EGT gauge for a turbo car. If you have a 3 gauge pillar last one is up to you

 

Eh......... Boost, EGT, Oil pressure is what people generally get...

 

i got boost egt and fuel pressure(essential for tuning) all in defi d gauge their nice

 

defi gauges are pretty good yeah, and for a turbo car the main ones you need are boost and voltage, egt isnt really needed, who cares how hot your exhaust gas is anyway...voltage is way more important and anyone who says differant is lying to you

LOL he said WHO cares how hot your exhaust gas get!
your EGT tell your alot more then you think.

These are the gauge im getting
Boost Gauge
EGT Gauge
Oil Pressure Gauge
Fuel Pressure Gauge

 

defi gauges even look cool and light up amber!!!!!

 

Do you even know what an EGT does. Or do you just look at the acronym and say to yourself...self exhaust gas temps are lame

voltage......HAHAHHAHAH

 

i would attach that Defi Voltage meter to your brain and check for activity...and when you see the results..no the gauge isn't broken..

The gauges are great, but the control unit is weak. I bought a new set of bf series gauges and little a later the darn control unit fried on me. I sent it back for warranty replacement. It's been 4-5 months now and not hear from them.

 

I think he was joking....

at least I hope so

Stay away from the Defi tachs though (at least the large "monster" tachs anyway). The needles tend to be very skitish and not very accurate.

 

Defi is a waste of $$$

 

i was considering defi when i was buying gauges.. but i went with greddy... boost, egt, oil and fuel pressure are the essential ones like people were saying.. how about that apexi decs one? any word on that? suppose to have a lot of built in options

 

thats why you go with the d gauges their cheeper than Autometer ultralites and ar much higher quality from what ive noticed so far

 

I have the d series boost, and i love it. its mounted on my steering wheel, and matches the stock gauges perfect, and even lights up amber, and is very high quality. so thumbs up for the d gauges

 

anybody wanna post pics of these bad boys?

 

"Defi is crap, waste of money" blah blah blah

Okay then, if you're going to say that then don't come on here bitching because your piece of **** mickey mouse tenzo R gauges blew out on you.

I happen to run five Defi gauges in my car, and they're nothing but good times. Sure their tach isn't the best, but it's okay my stock one does me well.

 

thats tight *** ****
