I like the Autometer 0-20psi boost (0-30 mmHg vacuum) gauge, because the range seems more useful for our cars. I wonder how some people are able to discern 10psi vs. 8 psi on some of these other gauges.

I agree that it is the perfect range for most FD's. We won't be needing one of these anytime soon.

I also switched from Autometer to Defi 'D' series, and the plastic tube was a PITA. Along with the yellow vacuum markings and dim and uneven backlight from the condom covered bulb. The only thing I regret is that it was a Pettit Racing -Autometer, so obviously the car was much faster with it. But still, I like the DEFI better. It's too bad that they discontinued at least some of the guages in that series. If I had to do it now, and on a budget, those VDO look decent, depending on how they look at night.
Anyway, if you found some left over stock, or used, here's what they look like.

When I bought them, I thought I was getting the old black/green ones. I was pleasantly suprised when I saw the boost gauge tho. The only problem was I had to wait 4 weeks for the temp gauge.(it was backordered)
Their website still shows the gauges as black/green, so its a little unclear exactly what gauges you can get in the new color combo.

I dont kknow man.. paying $200 USD and more for a gauge doesnt seem logical to me..
