I voted neither. I like Sport Comp IIs the best. Cobolt is ok, but every ricer has them, too, and I want to be a little different from them. I would get my gauges from Summit Racing and tell them to price match eGauges. They will + $1.00 extra off the matched price also.

i like the look of the phantom guages, you can always get a white overlay on the guage cluster and have everything match.

Check out dynotune guages. Love mine in the a-pillar. They also make a control switch that fits in a guage pod. www.dynotunenitrous.com

electrical. A mechanical fuel pressure gauge would require a fuel line hooked to the back of it, and same w/ nitrous pressure gauge.

Go with electrical my man. That just means what kind of sending unit will you have.

not a good idea to have fuel and nitrous running inside the car to the gauges.....go electrical, its not worth the agg to use mechanical.

i love my Dynotune gauges.

I like the Phantom but the red matches my interior. I used all electrical. You don't have to worry about anything leaking into the car.
