Need some advice on guages and bov
 
I am thinking of installing a bov because my engine didn't come w/ the stock one. I was looking at the ebay one's but I don't really know what I am looking at and if any of them are worth spending money on. I was very confused on what pull type bov meant too... The other thing is I am thinking of installing an after market boost gauge and air/ fuel gauge so I can keep an eye on whats happening. I want some nice looking ones that are also accurate. I kind of like the one's that black out when they are off but I don't even know who makes them. Is there a good gauge thats also cheap? Any advice is welcome.

cheap gauges here:

glowshift.com

but dont ask me if they are good or accurate.

the only accurate afm is a wideband... nothing cheap about those

autometer makes good, somewhat cheap gauges. if you want expensive electronic gauges look to defi or greddy. i wouldnt cheap out on a shitty ebay BOV. hks, tial and greddy make high quality BOV's and can be had for $100-$200. you get what you pay for.

turbo XS RFL
Blitz SSQ

I have a ebay bov on my car.. sounds nice and works good (came with my intercooler kit I bought off a member)

which autometer gauges are good? to many different ones

Is this a good option? Its a Turbo XS and its made for low boost which is perfect w/ my stock turbo I would guess and I am not looking at a larger turbo anywhere in the near future.

autometer z series gauges..there black on black with orange needle and the red backlight at night is close to stock orange lighting..work great and wide variety. check out summitracing and jegs they sell alot of stuff..

spend your money right on quality the first time .. save up a bit more and go for the following:

Greddy V2 (amber) gauges
HKS SS bov

what makes greddy gauges any better than the autometer gauges? The name? they are prettier? i have never had a problem with them and they are affordable, and look good IMO. Fucntional and affordable. I have never understood why Greddy was so damn expensive other than the fact that they are a big name.
