Accuracy costs. Youre thinking is flawed. If you are going to put in guages that dont read correctly - save the money, take your chances and dont put any in at all.

I have had Glow Shift gauges since February. They have been accurate. The main problem with them is if you get the tinted gauges, you have trouble seeing them in direct daylight. The pillar pod is not well made, so go with another manufacturer. Other than having to lengthen the wires, I have had no problems. I have the 3-in-1 boost, EGT, and Fuel Pressure, Oil temp, and trans temp, the trans temp is nt hooked up because I have a manual. These are on the Glow Shift triple A pillar pod. the 3-in-1 is a 2 3/8: gauge so I had to modify the pod for it.

Ask for a quote from out sponsors, they might be able to get you close to Glowshifts price with better gauges. I know I can't get the same deal anywhere up here as I can from our sponsors.

i was running on very little sleep (still am) my thinking is very very flawed. also for the poster another gauge setup to consider would be the edge insight. gauges without the pillar.

i have a set of em on my 95 powerstroke. i havent noticed any problems with them yet. i have 2 complaints with them tho, i went with the tinted gauges and its a pain to see in the daylight, night time they look insane but suck during the day. my 2nd is that im 5'4", so being the short *** that i am its hard for me to see my top gauge. i called them up and was talking to a guy about them, according to him the package bundle they sell are lower quality gauge then the elite 10s that they sell. if i could do it over id either go with the elite s or isspro gauges

i have them in my 1997 powerstroke. (pyro, boost, oil temp) they seem to work really good. the onlt complant i have is the pod. it tilts the gadge up to high for me. and im 6,1 i love the gadges but i would suggest a diffrent pod. just my 2 cents.
