I have them in my car as a tempoary solution. I've had them in another car and every sender died, but they were awesome for the first year.

probably wouldnt use the gauges, but i have a glowshift gauge pod :) haha

[OzerMan]

I had looked at grabbing one just yesterday. I just wanted something that I could attempt to match the color of my other gauges with. I'm curious to see other comments on these.

[no-zoom2002]

the 7 color elite series has a real nice look to them, almost like defi. bUT I WAS wandering about reliability. the ones i want are boost, oil psi, wideband O2

[Vr-4-Life]

they are cheaply made. i shouldnt talk because i have prosports however glowshift seem all rice no go....

[ScubaSteve]

I have them and haven't had any issues at all.

You know they are produced by the same company just different names

They dont look bad, price is great. I use all autometer and it cost too damn much, but I know they have history.

[tr4c3]

I've always used autometer. I'd love to run defi's in the coupe. If they are reliable and accurate go for it. Good price.

I dont like the look of them. and if your gonna get a wideband, get one like AEM that is proven.

[240sxDann]

I agree. On the important stuff, wideband, oil pressure, boost, get quality stuff. For like water temp, voltage, some of the not critical stuff, meh, its kinda whatever IMO.

[OzerMan]

i currently have autometer boost gauge, and an interceptor. just needed something that didn't look awful to fill an open pod spot until i get and install a wideband, most likely AEM

[Gregory]

I have their gauge pod which is great I think. Fits very nicely. I have had Boost gauge, Oil Temp, and Narrowband from them, and they all worked as they should for 2.5+ years now (except the narrow band was replaced with an Apexi wideband for other reasons like actually wanting to tune). But, they have been reliable and I get compliments on them all the time with how they look. BTW I have the tinted ones, so you can't see them untill you turn them on.

[no-zoom2002]

thanks for the input, the price of the wide band isn't that cheap, considering that innovate is like 240 and that is a fantastic gauge. I think In the future I may give them a try. I will post my results with them.

theyre legit gauges, not same quality as defi, megan, etc but they do their job

[james_ls]

I've never had an issue.

I DID have a dead-on-arrival oil pressure gage from them, and on one phone call to ASK if there was anything that could get done; they sent me a replacement unit on good faith.

Never had to return anything since.

Please, don't even put Megan anywhere in the same sentance with Defi. They're on two totally different levels.

[W_Evo]

I bought some off ebay when I was 16 and had them in my turbo ford probe, they're cheap. If your just going for looks I'd get em, but if you want a quality gauge thats acurate get some prosports. They're cheap and are work well. As far as WBO2 I use the innovate LC-1 and works great, especially for logging.

[Honest_Bob]

Prosports accurate :rotfl:

this.

and w EVO.. im happy your innovate wideband works well cause im actually sending mine in tomorrow to get tested an hopefully replaced as it wouldnt work out of the box. im not the first person to have this issue either. hopefully they do right by me and sort this out quickly. just ask peteyturbo how he feels about innovate products now haha

[W_Evo]

My Innovate was a PITA the first 2 days I had it but I solderd all the wires and got a better ground then it worked great. The only thing that sucks is that you have to calibrate them every couple weeks with the free air test, and they don't like to be started before the sensor warms up.

When I went on the innovate forums to try and solve my problem it was full of disaters so I can see where your comming from. That would piss me off if it didn't work out of the box.

Whats wrong with prosports? My boost gauge is right on.

[jjm4life]

yea im really looking forward to having to calibrate it every few weeks.. ugh. in hindsight i should have gone with an aem but the gauge is so damn ugly compared to the simple red readout of the innovate db gauge.
