I was just looking through Ebay for some gauges. My preference is for Racetech gauges, but I quite like the look of the Swoosh gauges:

if you dont mind me asking how much boost do you run? i really want a boost gauge up to about 20psi as i want to run about 15psi, the 30psi gauges seem an over kill for most of the mini's on here (as far as i know) and quite alot of people run 15 or so psi. Drives

i have some of the swoosh gauges, a bit shit really. sent one boost gauge back as it did eff all, the egt gauge keeps deciding to do its own thing randomly, not tried the tacho yet, also i think they are draining my batery with the key off. oh and they do this needle sweep thingwhen you turn the key on or off which IMO is so gay.

At the moment 17 PSi, but should be more after my tinkering over winter. Would have liked a 20 PSi gauge, but these suited my needs for a reasonable price. They've got peak hold, warning alarms (audio and visual) and are all electronic. They also have dual illumination - I have them set up so that they illuminate bright white for day driving, but when I switch my headlights on they change to red illumination so they don't give off a bright glare at night.

If you go on merlin (where i'd personally buy them from, and will eventually) you can get backlit or non backlit ones. Ones with lights arent that much more either, nice gauges! I've got a mechanical oil presure one and its pukka! Anyone seen those Defi gauges? Theyre super-pimp, not cheap though! Im not sure if you can use them on a mini though? Search on youtube, they do that needle sweep thing, and are completely black till you turn the ign on. Badass Edited by richminiturbo. on 6th Nov, 2008. |

Mine gets in the way a bit, but only when it is up. If it is down it does not cause a problem. |
