Which Gauges?

OK, planning on putting in gauges (pyro, boost and trans). My question is this....is there a big difference between analog and digital gauges? I like the BD X-Monitor and the way it mounts. I also like the look of the Commander. However, are they as reliable as ISSPRO gauges? Not looking to add any more horsepower (well...maybe a free flow muffler and tow box later). Just want the gauges for towing............

Thanks for your time
Mac

I really think this is a personal choice, they should all be fairly accurate. I chose ISSPRO because I like the full sweep gauges. Be honest with your future upgrades - if your going to add more power later, maybe consider a monitor that will interact with the box you add.

Thanks for the reply..my biggest concern was the reliability/accuracy factor between the two. So now I will just sit down and decide on which one to use.....feeling much more comfortable no matter which I go.

Thanks again
Mac

Only issue is with the monitor. May have problems with warranty issues.(May think it is a box). Won't get any crap from analog gauges from most dealers.

I like analog gauges due to the simplicity of reading. IMHO

Hmmm..in this day and age, it would not surprise me that a dealer would try and deny warranty work due to mistaking the monitor for a "box." Or say something like, "well, you have a monitor you must have had a "box" on it at one time." LOL

Anyway, I will ponder for a while more and get one or the other.

Thanks again

Well they would have to prove a box cause the warranty issue, and since you don't have one/never had one that would be impossible.
