It is my OPINION that autometer gauges are really not made for diesel engines. I can't remember exactly, but I know they don't recomend useing either their fuel pressure or egt gauge on diesels. Can't remember which one though. I've been running isspro for almost a year now with absolutely no problems. I probably biased to isspro because I have them, but I don't see too many autometers' in diesel trucks. I run 3 autometer gauges in my jeep and love them, but I wouldn't run them in my truck.

I have the Autometer guages and they work fine, however they don't reccomend the fuel pressure for diesel use. The pyro works fine. The only problem is they don't make a boost guage that will read above 35psi, so if you plan on big bombs you will need a guage that will read higher.

Autometer DOES make a 60psi boost guage. P/N: ATM-4305 ($46.90) on eguages.com.
Has anyone ever purchased guages from http://www.stcperformance.com ?
They quoted me $384.41 for pyro, boost, fuel pressure, and triple a pillar pod for their "STC" guages. Cheapest I've found for Autometer is eguages for $326.60 with the triple pillar.

I have Autometer "Z" series gauges for EGT, Tranny Temp, and Boost. I have the Westach FP gauge. I'm happy with all of them, although I had to have the FP sender replaced under warranty. Geno's gave me great service on that, by the way. As a heads-up: I ordered the 0-15psi FP gauge the first time. After I replaced my LP, the gauge kept sticking at the top. I had to go to the 0-30psi gauge as my fuel pressure is about 16psi at idle.

At the shop i work at we went from installing isspro to autometers and like installing the autometers over the isspro's. Plus the autometers have quite a few colors/styles, and i think they just look better. But i guess thats personal opinion. And yes they do make 0-60 boost gauges in most of there colors now. The pro comp silver 0-60 just recenently came out. The silver gauge is probably the most common collor we install.

I've had my Autometer ultra-lites in for over a year now about 30k and have had no problems. They dont match but I didnt want them to if I did I'd have went with Isspro but I like these just fine. When they come out with a 60psi boost gauge in their "cobalt" series I'm going to switch to them.

I'm running AutoMeter Sport-Comps (pyro and 35 psi boost) in my work truck, they've been in for a year and are working great. I plan to put a set of Z-series Autometers in my Dodge 'cuz I want a 60 psi boost gauge. The only thing I don't like is the way they set the exhaust probe up, you need to buy a compression sleeve and nut to make it fit in a manifold. I think they assume the probe will go post-turbo.

Anyone know of a 100PSI boost gauge? I'm currently running a spare from my air compressor since the PM3 reads off the MAP sensor and is limited to 55PSI...
