Joe,
You need to purchase one of the gauges as a "SET" - that means it comes with the control box.
So you need to buy this:
1. 2 1/16 boost set (white face)
2. 2 1/16 water temp gauge only (white face)
3. 2 1/16 fuel press gauge only (white face)
I ordreder my online but the company never shipped the water temp gauge so i had to obtain it locally. summitt racing carriers this stuff also, do search for "defi" over at summits main oage.

Whoa.. 600 bucks for that setup?! I have a two gauge pillar same exact one from autometer paid about 45$ for the pillar and 25 per gauge (autometer silver faced boost and A/F) so all together about 95$
But those are some sweet gauges!
Doesnt that boost gauge read by bar (psi) though?

Sam -
The boost gauge reads in psi.
Yes, they are expensive.
BUT
Look at the features :
1. precision made instruments, no guessometers (no flame)
2. peak holds - want to know what your peak boost is at any given time after a run, hit a button.
3. completely programmable warning lights, say you have your fp gauge programmed to have its light turn on if your fp drops below 35psi and your running down the road in full boost and the light flashes at you. It will give you a heads up that your are having fuel delivery probelms and are going dead lean.
4. 40sec playbacks - you can watch a whole run after the fact to see if the boost and fp is dropping.
If you add an egt or oil pressure to the mix. you will also be able to view the playback, peak hold, and set your warning lights.
I like autometers (see cobra in sig) but i wanted more feeatures and better accuracy. They are just a what i wanted, they are not for everybody.
