They look like good decent cheap boost guages. Does anyone have any experience or know anything about these guys?

when comes to gauges, and being acurate, quality counts... and brand name= quality usually when it comes to gauges.

not to bash on Daddy's, but the gauge quality was not there. I ordered a set, and once I saw the hardware store connectors I sent them right back.

Get Defi or Blitz. I've also seen a brand named "swoosh" that has identical packaging, documentation, and look to the Defi gauges.

the blitz and defi guages look nice but they are so damn expensive! Isn't there a cheaper alternative that still looks nice?
