Default glowshift gauges ???

hey im new to this whole thing .. i just purchased a 97 12v that was my uncles .. he passed away and now i have it, the truck has 13k origional miles on it and has some motor work done 2 it .. anyways i noticed that the isspro boost gauge wasnt working in it the other day, everything seems to be hooked up and pluged in.. but i was gonna order a digital trans temp gauge and a digital boost gauge to match the red digital pyro it has. and i ran across glowshift gauges.. the price is cheap ... i was wondering if anyone had some persional experience with them ???? and are they worth the money ??

With glow sh*t its really hit and miss. I have a Edge Insight CS and I love it. But there's about the same with Horror story's and good story's. Its about a 50/50 that you will get a good set or not.

what he said. They are hit or miss, typical chinese quality control.

no real way to validate the temps are anywhere near what the gauge says either.

So for lookin pretty they work..but i wouldnt stake tuning on high dollar engine with them.

Call ISSPRO and see if its under warranty? Im not sure what they come with but its worth a try. Also check the lines and hoses for crud.
