I just bought AEM Wideband gauge from ebay for $204 shipped . Now I need boost/vacuum gauge . Aem makes one but it's $200+ for boost /vacuum gauge and I really don't want to pay that much for boost/vacuum gauge.
I just called AEM cause I head AEM is comming out with Analog gauge for less price but they don't have et for when it's comming

I will like to know what gauge you guys running ? I need help matching Aem wideband gauge with boost/vacuum gauge. I saw some Autometer boost/vacuum gauge for like $60+ but don't know which one match. I think Defi gauge is nice but might be rice for my car. I just don't want to spend too much for boost/vacuum gauge

Please help, oh and I just bought Speedhut duel piller gauge pod.
My secret project might start by feb of 2009 cannot tell you now but I am doing some early christmas shopping

Do you have a picture of the gauge that you can post?

I have Autometer gauges. I need to replace my narrowband with a wideband.

On Autometer's website you can look at all the gauges they produce. Mine are "Z Series".

Your black ring may be a bit too polished to match the Z Series. But like I said Autometer has a large selection of gauge styles. My boost gauge cost around $50.

Defi makes a very high quality gauge. I would run them, but I can't see paying that much for them. Alot of Japanese cars run them, but I wouldn't say they were rice. I too would like to find a good Boost gauge that will match the AEM wideband.

put the white overlay in your wideband and get either an autometer phantom (around the dial lighting) or a phantom II (through the numbers LED lighting) those should match pretty good.

Yeah the phantom might match pretty good. Phantom II lettering is just too busy.
