IRP also offers a new triple gauge. Theirs costs a bit more ($180) but its the best quality one that I have ever seen. Unfortunately, they are out of stock. Last I heard there might be 1 left.

And thus ends the insanely inflated used flyrx7 pod prices! .

I like prosport, they seem to be really interested in putting out products that people want/need at a reasonable price.

There good. I have 4 of them, and they look awesome, and they use the same technology as the Defi.

I also have some prosport gauges but haven't had a chance to use them yet. I have a few friends with them and they liked them very much (part of the reason I bought mine).

if you want a gauge pod, you'll have to hit up another forum I have one and it is top notch. Also, Frank has been knocking out quite a few flyrx7 pod's as of recent, but once again, you won't find them here.

Ask Ihor if they have them. If im not mistaken, last I heard they had one left. I was gonna take it but you can have it instead. I think I remember them mentioning that they had a new version out or something. I could be wrong.

Prosport says the gauge pod will fit their 60mm gauges but does anyone know if it'll fit the DEFI 60mm?

I took the plunge and bought the pod before this thread. I was a previous owner of the fly pod and while it fit perfectly, the finish really left something to be desired. My new pod arrived and it fit perfect as well, however the finish is incredible. I snapped some pics of my new pod and gauges. Prosport must have liked what I emailed them because they also have the two pics on their site! I am so happy with both my gauges and new tri-pod.

Wow... All that looks pretty impressive. Waaay cheaper than the Defi's, though I wonder about gauge/sensor accuracy. Anyone have any evidence on accuracy/precision?

Most all companies use the same sensors/sending units, the real quality lies in the gauge itself. I personally know 3 people who own these gauges and don't have any complaints aside from the ones they brought on themselves by not wiring them correctly .

People get hyped up about Defi's because they are so expensive, so naturally they HAVE to be better... I know plenty of people with malfunctioning Defi's, the only real difference is they are to embarrassed to admit it after spending all that money!!!! So instead of getting people complaining because their "cheap" gauge broke, you get people not complaining because they spent to much money! .

Also PS customer service has been impeccable. I must have fat fingered my order and accidentally ordered an extra two of the most expensive gauges on my list! they refunded me the money no questions asked without a restocking fee!

i notice that the one oil pressure gauge they offer has a high range of 150psi.
would a rotary ever see more oil pressure then that?

thx for the response, i have an autometer oil pressure gauge currently and its high reading is 100 psi, that can be reached @ approx. 4500rpm with a 20w50 motor oil. what would oil pressure be @ 8000rpm?
