Now that was ******* funny. but go easy on the volvos................

I like the ultra lite gauge. All the rest are ricer. My favorite line of gauges are the "pro-comp". Balck and white with the yellow accents. Liquid filled are even better. Useless unless you need the liquid for a reason but still give it a little extra "cool factor".

It would depend on the rest of your gauges. If you are running stock gauges in the dash then I would go for the carbon fiber series. If you have white face gauges in the dash then I would go for he ultra-lites or the phantoms.

I will be looking into the phantom 2s myself.

Need an electric nitrous pressure gauge only. Dont have any other after market gauges in my car. pro-comp line doenst have a nitrous gauge.

and you guys are brutal sometimes

Although I might include a fuel pressure as well, not sure yet. Dont really need a fp gauge, theres one under the hood anyway

Oh yeah I forgot about that. That made me mad when I was looking for an electric nitrous pressure gauge too, because I really like the Pro-Comp series. I wonder why they don't make one? And they vac/boost gauge only goes to 20psi, what's with this ****?

106 views and only 6 votes. Thats pretty pathetic. Whats with some of you people, unable to form an opinion on a simple subject?
By the way Poik the 4774 has the yellow in it. It sort of looks like the pro-comp.
Personaly I like the c2. It looks like it would be the easiest to read, besides the phantom. Not sure if they all have a lit display either but thats important as well for night use.

Probably has more to do with the ton of "opinion" polls lately where the person asking does the opposite of whatever us mere mortals suggest.

My question would be, why not just get what YOU like the best as opposed to getting other people's opinions and worrying about what others think/ say or care?

Now I have asked for opinions before but it is to gain knowledge usually......I don't think I would ask for everyone's opinions about a multiple choice thing for ME. Especially if it was something that was aesthetic like rims, colors, etc. To each their own but I would say get whatever YOU like best.

True enough Rott, but I like to see what other people like as well. Maybe someone else has found a gauge they really like and would express why. It just gives me more ideas to work with. Ultimately I'll get what I like the best but I might not be seeing all there is. So I ask and poll to make sure I'm not missing anything. Poik could have found a marshall gauge and I would never have seen it unless he pointed it out. I saw a nice marshall gauge but it was not electrical.

And then there are the digital readouts from dynotune. I like the small square ones, they're can go anywhere and be very stealthy. This might be the best option for my car. Its not sporting any aftermarker gauges as it is. Just one round one might look out of place.

I like the carbon fiber ultralite series. Kind of half new school and half old school. I've got two of those in my bird.

There's a guy on another board that took about a digital nordskog FP guage and mounted it inside his guage cluster. Looks stock. Stealth always gets a vote from me.
