Not made my mind up yet as ive got the horn for em all but i aint got the pocket of Bill Gates

Looked on a couple of sites about then and they seem to explain the set up differantly on each site.

As far as i know i will need
1 link control unit no matter what.
I am pondering over the multi function or separate gauges as they both have their pro's and cons.

I can get the full Defi range.

You need a Control Unit, now known as 'Control Unit II'. This gives the high level of functionality, such as 3 mins of Recording, Peak Recall, Warning Levels etc. This unit will run up to 7 Gauges.

The gauges then come in 52mm or 60mm. A choice of Black faced or White faced with Green Illumination or the new Black faced with Amber Illumination.

Further to this are the 'BF' gauges, which have a black-out face when you turn the ignition off and are a bit BLING.

I could go on.........

Christian, would you say that the boost gauge is better than the SPA one you use to use, and if so why?
(i was thinking about getting an SPA digital boost gauge)

Yes, SPA is very good, but IMO you can't beat an Analogue Boost Gauge!! (says he that only has a Boost Controller with Digital Display!!). If I had money to waste, I would have added a Defi Boost Gauge to mine.
