I have all autometer Z series and they work fine the only one that was pricey was the fuel pressure one.

Autometer makes quality gauges and I'm happy with mine. They have good customer service from my experience. They replaced one of mine when I first bought it because it wasn't working right. I have the ultralite series, I think some of their other models are a little higher quality. I've had a couple minor problems with my gauges. The needle on the boost gauges every once in a while gets stuck on cold mornings until about 4 psi then it shoots up and starts working normally for the rest of the day. That's pretty rare though. Also, lately sometimes my egt needle starts acting erratically but I'm pretty sure that's because of poor ground on my part. I will address that issue this weekend. Having said that I would still definitely buy Autometer again. After all, racers use them so that should tell you something about their quality and accuracy.

I have Autometer and have no complaints. I did have a Pyro start acting up and I called tech support after about 4-5 years of ownership.

They helped me over the phone and sent me a new gauge and requested mine back in return. No charge for the exchange after 4-5 years.

That is customer service!

I've ran both AM Sport Comps in my 93 and Isspro EVA's in the 97. They both work well and its personal preference.. I like the lighting and overall look of the EVA's better myself.

Just remember, for our diesels you can run oil pressure gauges instead of fuel pressure ones. A lot cheaper and should act properly.....
