Guages What brand?

I am getting ready to put in new guages and i was wondering what brand you guys recommend. I was leaning towards Isspro because i have heard good things about them and like the way they look. I am doing new pyro, boost, and fuel pressure guages. Just wanted to get some other opinions before i buy them.

All gauges vary in quality and reading! I have always ran isspro, (big truck, little trucks, cars, equipment) they seem to give a good accurate reading and have held up great! the only problems i've ever had is the light plugs falling out of the back... but considering i've givin them plenty of heck they've done well!

ISSPRO seems to be as good as any. Diesel Manor and some others sell nice kits with all the assorted items you need for installation in one package.

I like isspro's, but if you don't put a needle valve on the FP gauge it will make noise after a while. But other than that, I love them.

Isspro here!

Boost, Pyro, and Fuel pressure, 0-60 is best..

Isspro EV's will match the stock gauges pretty good if you install green bulb covers over the lights. People always ask me if mine came from the factory.

If you look on the Autometer web site at their fuel pressure gauge it says "Not intended for use on Dodge diesel" (I'm paraphrasing here). But I know a lot of folks here use them.

I really liked Isspros in my old truck (boost, egt and FP). ran great for years with no problems.

I have autometers in my '95 that were in there when I bought it. The boost gauge is now disconnected because it rattled. Not the gauge's fault, there was no snubber on the line. But the Pyro is acting crazy now bouncing around as I go down the road.

Anyway, I found an Isspro 60# boost gauge in the toolbox, so the autometers are coming out and isspros are going in.

Just my experience.

I got a set of Auto Meter gauges for xmas, I'm just now getting ready to install them. Just make sure and order from a vender who includes all the goodies you need for the install( like paint, boot bolt, transmission adapters, etc). chasing down all the odds and ends is a PITA.

I love my isspros. Only had a slight issue with my oil pressure sender but nothing major. I've got tranny temp, fuel pressure, boost, egt, oil pressure, and water temp gauges.

I'm partial to Stewart Warner gauges, personally. They are nicely built and very accurate.
