Default Decent Aftermarket Gauges

Hey everyone, Decided against getting the 5.0, and instead am fixing my 84 Mustang SVO Turbo! Got the wiring harness fixed, oil leaks fixed, Turbo, downpipe, and 3" exhaust are getting mocked up this weekend. Also ordered a turbo master external boost controller!

Onto my post. I'm still going to be pushing low boost 12-16psi, so my stock gauges should be accurate enough to tell me when I'm hitting too much boost. I'm just looking for EGT Gauges, and and Oil temp. Where can i find some decent priced ones that will be accurate and look alright mounted up? I will probably end up getting a boost gauge also if i get the 3 Pod mount, but we shall see.

If you want to go old school then get Stewart Warner gauges. They are about the same as Autometer. Autometer also makes an off brand called Auto Gage which are a lot cheaper but are still good quality. Just go onto www.summitracing.com and you can find all kinds. Summit even has their own which I believe are also made by Autometer.

Those gauges look good! I was lookin on Summit and they have a lot of brands that are decent in price and how they look. I'll probably just go with one of the autometer off brands. Thanks for the replies guys.
