DEFI Gauges

Does anyone know if those retards are going to redesign their Boost gauge? I bought one, finally installed it, and there are only 3 hash marks between the intervals. Please tell me what good it does to know I am at 12.5 lbs of Boost!!!

D-Gauge, Boost control, black face. Take a look at the image in the RX7store.net.

That is one of the reasons I went with the Defi Link series gauges over the D-gauges......

You actually have time to notice a hash mark? I can pretty much tell at a glance if I'm 12 pounds or 13 pounds of boost, you know, 12 is slightly closer to 10 than 15, and 13 is slightly closer to 15 than 10. Now if this were some mission critical stuff I might worry about it, but this is a little ****, IMO. I understand what your saying though, it is a little idiotic of them, but oh well.

Yeah it is. Each tick mark is 1.25 PSI So basically 12 psi is right before that second tick mark after 10. I use the D gauge too, just to see when I floor it where it goes up to, then when im tuning my boost controller, I look at it after the gauge.

I was originally going with the D-Link, but they were backordered, so I went with the D-Gauges. Then, I waited so long to install them that I probably could have gotten the D-Links anyways...
