Auto meter gauges

[wee-jo]

Who here uses them? How would you rate them in comparison to defi, blitz etc? Are they quite accurate?

Have two of them in my Integra, bought them in the states so they read in imperial,

Very well built,
Good looking,
Seems to be accurate enuff, unless ye short one by tapping the wire like i did!

Try an get the led ones cos the normal sidelight bulbs ones jus are not bright enuff,

Hope this helps

I ran Autometer Autolites in my starlet swapped tercel and I have no complaints about them. After 2 years of use, my boost guage did start to get a little off(1-2lbs) but not really a big deal.

What do you mean by imperial? Different units or something?

So would this inaccuracy not occur in a gauge such as a defi one?

I dont know, but I would venture to say that any guage will have some innaccuracy over time, but i may be wrong, but I was very happy with my autolites.

He's asking about autometer not autogauge, just to clarify.

Autometer are good gauges, they're american and very popular there, you'll see them in pretty much all the pro drag cars.

Fair enough was just making sure, I had an autometer boost and narrowband afr (pointless ) previously and the boost gauge was nice and accurate too.
