Hi,

Planning to have some Defi's CRs (Boost, Oil Pressure, Oil Temp) plus control unit and a centre pod fitted to my Hawkeye STI but price is significant so I want to shop around and see if there are any other options.

Can anyone recommend any alternatives?

Thanks,

Steve

 

I have some auto gauge steppers on my car, they are considerably cheaper than defis and you dont need a control unit either. there are also prosport gauges as well both look similar to defis. look on xyber autos website

 

Prosport Elec Steppers from XyberAutos

 

some Prosports were for sale in the for sale section

PM Stuswrx

He PM'd me with a set for sale a week or so ago

 

Sorry, he sold them on the 19th (Fleabay)

 

Also available in 52mm

Which ones are the most accurate, I'm looking for some but have been told Prosprt are a bit slow.

 

if you want the best, buy Defi's.

Quality dont come cheap!

 

The ones above are really good, not Defi's, but are the best alternatives I have seen.

 

well defi`s are the best but expensive, i went for prosport 60mm and defi pod supplied and fitted £495 good product and a very resonable price :-)

 

Problem with me is when I find some decent gauges, I ahve the job of finding a decent garage. LOL.

 

Anyone know where to get a decent priced 3 clock pod for a Hawkeye cant seem to find one anywhere

 

dont buy defi there very inaccurate from my experience
my boost is out by .7 bar and oil by .6

 

If you want something that looks good, Defi are the way to go. But if you want accuracy, they are not.

E.g. I had Defi link on my type R, Defi read peak boost at 1.7 bar, I was actually at 1.52-1.55 measured on Surrey Rolling Road.

For accuracy I suggest SPA Design. You can also have dual gauges so you can measure the same amount of variables with half the gauges littering your dash. They do not look as cool, but are accurate and a lot clearer.

Depends if you want style over function...
