Default SECS or Defis ?????

Defis look the nuts, but costs £700 though

SECS does look a bit taccy, although at £400 it does a lot more than Defis


Which system and why ?

BTW one or the other, not both, im not that flush

I ended up with both, the secs is really good if you get allot of cel lights but they are crap if you want to see whats going on when driving, the defis look great but Im sure you know that already

i could live with out the defi's, but don't be paying £700 for defi's I paid half that for 3 with out the pod try scoobymania

Has anyone got a picture of these fitted into an 03/04 STI?
Will they fit underneath the headunit if I change to single din?

I have four Defi's fitted at the moment (Boost, Oil Press, Oil Temp and EGT), I am planning to get a secs unit aswell due to it's trouble shooting capabilities and the fact you can read fault codes etc...

Both good investments if you ask me, oh and they look flash aswell

The new VFD SECS looks very compared to the LCD unit.

I've already got DEFI'S but like above I'm considering one for the trouble shooting abalities i.e. ****-ing annoying CELs.
