I have prosport oil temp, oil pres, boost, and afr narrowband. These are in the vent pod and cpe triple dash mount. I was thinking of exing the ventpod and just having the dash mount. And also switching to defi gauges. This would be a 510 upgrade and im not sure if it would be worth it.
New defi gauges would be boost, egt, and temp.
let me know what you think

If you want baller status do it! I've run Defis in my own car and if you put them next to the Prosport, there is no comparison. The difference is in build quality of the sensors, wiring, and finish.

If your gauges are working fine, why bother? If I was starting from scratch, I'd get Defi gauges for the CP-e pod, but you're already set...

Spend 510 bucks for what reason??? Prosport make good gauges. Defi's are nice but are such rip offs imo. Maybe get a defi wideband to replace that narrowband you have.

Have you bought a set of Defi's to make that statement?
I have installed both and Defi > Pro Sport.

I'm not taking anything away from Pro Sport. It is a good gauge for what you pay, but Defi is in a different league.

I assume your talking to me?? My friends evo has a thousand dollar set (prob more) of 4 defi gauges. Yes they are nice / high quality but are they worth that type of money ??? not for me. The point of a gauge is to work and the prosport boost gauge I have is spot on (confirmed with my scan gauge / another boost gauge). Im not trying to advocate one brand over another simply making a point. I mean if you have the money then go for it but I would rather spend that money elsewhere.
