Default Gauges

Thinking of getting gauges fitted to type R Oil pressure, Oil temp and Boost Pressure can anyone make recommendation on makes and where to get fitted near London want to put in centre pod on top dash board?

Its standard at the moment running 270bhp.

Seen deal with Scoobyworld but there shut between Christmas and New Year when I'd like to get them fitted.

Defi's will always be up there at the top of the list, but they are very expensive.
What kind of budget are you looking at? Defi's are around 300-500 quid makr, where other makes you can get them all for about a 100 quid.

You might be able to get some Defi's then. I think there is a set in the for sale section, although fitting is relatively easy I found. So you may be able to save even more.

I'm a techno retard so might hold out for Scooby World useless I can get some other suggestions. But the Defi's seem the way to go from the reviews I've seen.

I have a set of Stack Pro Control gauges and have to say they're absolutely awesome. Stack are a massive motorsport brand and the quality really shows.

They're not difficult to install either, just takes a bit of time. Saves a few quid if you DIY as well

Prosport gauges seem to get a good rep next to defi's without the price tag

I'm pretty sure you could get a set for £500 including pod.

at first, must know what kind of gauges you want. mechanics or electronics. boost gauge you can easy fit by own hands ;]], check google.com . the same is about oil pres, oil temp. gauges but if you have no time or interest better give who knows how to fit it. what about Defi as all talking here, if money not problem its way to go ;] on my car i use mechanics Omori Brand gauges.

Thanks Jura11 spoke to Neil seemed like a good guy. I am been cheeky but becauseI've got the time off ringing round to see if I can get them fitted asap as in before New Year but I don't think its going to happen after speaking to a couple of people.

PS Neil said £450 for Defi gauges with ATi pod fitted.

For gauges look here(cheaper than Scoobyworld i think) http://www.xyberautos.com/catalog/default.php after this you will need gauge pod which cost from 70-150£(carbon Defi pod cost around 90-150£)
