lets argue about something else. Not which gauges are cooler.

Re: Defi Gauges Suck!
This is relavent to the gauge conversation and not the name calling:
I had a VDO boost gauge and people kept on telling me that I shouldn't have bought such a cheap gauge, even if it did match the interior. When I ran a vag-com diagnostic on the car I did a boost log and my little cheap gauge was reading exactly what the computer was seeing (in different units, of course). Moral is, price isn't always everything. I know most aren't arguing price vs. quality, but it is something to think about.
oh yeah, a note on esthetics: I hate the sport comp lighting system. It looks terrible.

16 second maxima? not really my sig is just a joke. its actually a bit quicker than that.

Haha.. great stuff. Original, no. Have you stooped to name calling over some freaking gauges? Yes. Now stop making a dick of yourself
Funny how the slower import crowd
You assumed and classified import owners so I did the same to you, dont feel bad its ok.
Since you're into the namecalling thing and catching feelings, are you illiterate? And besides, I've had EFI turbo cars before, and even I would never tell you to tune your car off an AutoMeter air/fuel gauge
