Okay, thanks for the info. That's exactly how the GlowShit gauges are. I wonder if they are made by the same company or something. The gauges look similar, and the sending units look exactly the same. Hopefully you guys keep having success with the ProSports.

Slight thread revival but was wanting to see if anyone had feedback on the Prosport gauges. I am usually not one to skimp on things but I need to pick up a boost gauge and a fuel pressure gauge (already have an AEM wideband).
Looking at Prosport, Autometer and AEM. AEM I know is quality stuff but damn they are proud of their stuff. If it's worth it I will spend the $400 for two gauges and a pillar mount but if I could get away with spending half and get the same performance I am all for it.
Need to look into the Autometer more, they look like a true and trusted option and are cheaper than AEM.

I prefer mechanical boost gauges. Cheaper, easier to install, and not glitchy.
I had one electric boost gauge give me problems. Occasionally on startup, for whatever reason, the polarity of the gauge reversed. So instead of showing 18in hg at idle, it showed 18 psi boost at idle, and swept backwards while driving......

Clean and simple.. I don't like real flashy stuff.
Boost

Fuel Pressure.

And from what I can gather looks like I need this for the fuel pressure gauge. I am thinking 6' will be long enough to go from the pilar to the fuel line?
