    They do water temp, oil temp, voltage, tacho, air/fuel mix, oil pressure, boost pressure, EGT, then they have addons you can get for the range including fan controller, warning light, turbo timer and remote control :)
    Fuel pressure is coming soon too :thumbs:

    I only have a couple of small pics, but they look like this:

    What is the estimated price of the gauges.? Just wondering if its something i can afford.. And are they only to be mounted on stand, or could they be mounted in a A-pillar pod or in the regular dash pod´s ?
    -But the gauges looks cool, cant wait to see some more/better pictures.

    Thanks James

    i was wondering if anyone could tell me if i would need to get a sandwhich plate for the oil pressure/temp when i fit my gauges, they come with a sender ect but as i dont know how these things work or how to fit them i dont know :confused: :o , my mate said i would but just wanna double check :D .

    i,ve got

    boost
    vacuum
    oil temp and pressure
    water temp

    is there anything else i need to take into consideration to fit them, thanks :thumbs:

    Ok, the price will vary according to which type of sensor they come with.
    The temperature sensors (oil and water), voltage, air/fuel and tacho will be the cheapest at around £70 followed by pressure (oil and turbo boost) at around £100 then the EGT sensor will be the most expensive at around £105. These are estimated prices, but shouldn't be too far off.

    The mounting stand and sunscreen are supplied, but you can mount them however you want, exactly as you would do normal gauges.

    I've got some boost gauges on the way over that will be with us in a couple of weeks and I'll get some pictures and a little review once we've checked them out :thumbs:

    constella.co.uk i told you! £25 you cant go wrong, unless they go wrong. just because its a chav shop not a drift shop doesnt mean its not a real gauge lol.
