I bought Defi's for my Imprezas, mainly because they look gucci and matched the dials in the Impreza. They weren't the most accurate gauges, IIRC they were 0.1bar-ish out compared to the readings that AndyF got when he mapped my car.





Also bought cheaper gauges for other cars and they look similar but aren't the same sort of quality as the Defis that I had.


Cheers,
Grant
