I'm after the same type of gauge and have narrowed it down to either a SPA or Racetech.

From Demon Thieves the SPA gauge is Ł157 and the Racetech gauge is Ł83...

Defi, Racetech, Mocal, Autometer (USA) are what i've used.


Defi is by far the best for looks and functions,
but the Racetech and Mocal (boost, oil pressure, oil and coolant temps) were all spot on for accuratacy, (i test all my gauges)
Autometer, 1 psi out on boost @ 35 psi, but tacho spot on. EGT seems accurate against my Defi.
