Hi guys,
I'm going to be picking up a boost and A/F guage to prepare for my MBC this spring.
I'm going to go cheap now, and use Autometer.
Which do you feel are the best guages which closely match our stock guages?
The Phantom guages are nice, but they are white.
Any thoughts?
Which do you have in your TT?
TIA

Sorry if not clear.
Pods.
Seems like the Phantom (white faced) are the most popular.
The pods are 2 1/8". Not sure if that is 52 or 60mm, however.

Thanks, I've checked there.
I can get them no problem, I'm just wondering which you all used.
The Phantom seems to be the most popular, but those are white faced, so I don't know how well they go with the stock setup

I have the 'sport-comp"?
Just the black face w white positive boost and yellow vacuum. with the brushed alum. trim bezel.
It just so happened that that was the one my friend had after he wrote off his car, so i bought it and when i put it in, it was a perfect match. the light comes with little coloured 'condoms' to put over the bulb to make it green or orange, but witt just the naked bulb inside, it matches the colour of the instrument cluster perfectly.
If thats what you want, then go with the classic 'sport comp. if you want something a little more showy, go with a different face.

here is the only pic i could find of both the boost and A/F.
Now that i look at them, they look pretty plain next to some of the other ones i just came across, but i think it looks good.
