Do you actually want Defi's? If not, I have a set of prosport stepper gauges complete with all sensors, wiring and instructions, plus a Scoobyworld pod, all yours for £125 delivered

There is a prosport boost gauge in the car already but I really liked the defi's when I had them before, liked how you could adjust them and have the warning/peak set etc. Not to fimilar with the prosport items yet so maybe need to look into them a bit more. The car will be getting used for trackdays etc so would like something that is going to warn me if something is up rather than having to look at them all the time

Coz they're over priced maybe?

Prosport steppers have warning alarms, but don't replay like the defis. Defi boost gauges are generally inaccurate by 0.1bar IME...prosport similarly up to about 1.6 bar, then they are a tad more inaccurate. YMMV

I had the Prosport gauges in my STi and they where OK at best. The quality was ok, not very robust, the cabling was very fragile and the connections are flimsey.

I now have DEFI's and they are light years better in quality, overall build quality, much stronger cabling and connections.

you get what you pay for.

i have prosports and cant fault them, but defis are better.

i have never had any trouble with the prosports and they do the job required.
defis have more options like the replay, but will you ever need it?

having had defis in the past i have to say they look a little better than the prosports when illuminated and on start up sweep.

it depends on your budget but if money isnt an issue defis win hands down, but prosports are a great alternative for a lot less money.

Ive had prosport in my old impreza, thought they were ok for the money but then sold them for a full set of Genome STI Defi's. I wouldnt have anything but Defi's now. I like how they wire up, work and quality of all the parts. At the end of the day its down to how much you want to pay but remember you get what you pay for.
