Hey guys, I just found this site that seems to be selling Auto Guages at insanely cheap prices.

They're not quite exactly the same as the Ozegauges ones but seem to have all the right features.

Smoked face looks black when off.

52mm.

Electrical.

Are they knock offs or is there some other reason I'm missing as to why they're like $30 per guage...?

Is it cos they're not "Stepper Motor Series"??

Or is this just a crazy bargain?

Also, I know electrical gauges are the go but is it ok to use a mechanical one for boost?

Yeah, I noticed that.

Is that a big deal?

What's the difference? Are stepper motor ones just more accurate?

This is not the brand Autometer Autogage, its a cheap brand called Autogauge. My mate went through about 6 or 7 of em from Just Jap till he got a set that worked... Boost, oil n temp.

Are they a straight swap over for the existing F6 gauges or do you need to put in new senders?

here is a pic of mine lights off and on.

I cant tell you if they will direct swap with the typhoon gear as mine had no guages there before.

I also only got boost and air fuel, every thing was supplied in the box as far as senders goes.

These gauges look good, but Im a little confused. Im looking at this 1 the

Auto Gauge 2"/52mm Smoke Face Mechanical Boost(PSI) Gauge Meter

It doesnt mention any senders, does it need 1 being a mechanical type as opposed to he electrical types on the same site that comes with senders?

Also do most people with twin pods go for the boost and oil temp guages? looking at this 1

Auto Gauge 2"/52mm Smoke Face Electrical Oil Temperature Gauge Meter with Sender
