ISSPRO Gauges??

I have been looking at gauge packages. I was looking at the deal that Vulcan Performance has going on for three ISSPRO gauges for 275.99. I was wondering who runs em and if they perform as well or better than autometer gauges. Are they a good gauge to trust?

They are the only gauges I have run in any of my diesels. I have run Autometers in cars, as far as quality goes I think the ISSPROs are better.

As far as performance I think they are all about equal.
Isspro was the first to offer better lighting and a look that was closer to OEM.
Isspro is a very good quality product. The Vulcan price seems fair.

In 9 years I have only had one isspro gauge fail. 3 years out of warranty and they charged me only S&H on the new gauge. I was amazed at that.

Autometer///// well, I got tired of getting RMA's from Canada to the US, and then the border PITA afterwards.

I will not trust my vehicle to them again.

Just my experience... if my post comes off a little hostile, it's because I was tired of their runaround.

Isspro has always backed up their products 100%

I also have had very good luck with Isspro Gauges. I have two in my 96' that have been in there for over ten years. And that price looks good to me.

Great lighting, OEM look and excellent performance.

On top of that Vulcan is as good a guy to deal with as there is!

Isspro gauges on my current truck as well as my last 98 with no issues. Rock solid and accurate.

I've had my share of bad ISSPRO EGT's and Fuel pressure gauges.
The 3rd EGT gauge is acting up, and the fuel pressure gauges stayed accurate for less than 6 months. (All that in a period of 4 years)
The true PIA is that I have to pay shipping (OK, that's in the warranty rules) and that they never managed to write out "warranty replacement" on the customs papers.... So I had to pay import taxes for the warranty replacements too.

Just my 2c

I don't hae any experience with Autometer gauges. I have the Isspro's on the dash, and they look/ work great so far (10K miles).

Isspro is the only name in gauges as far as I'm considered.

X2.


If not for Isspro, choice #2 IMHO is DiPricol.
