Default These gauges any good?

Are these gauges any good? anyone try them?

http://prosportgauges.com/blue_performance_gauges.aspx

I'd rather get Auto Meter gauges but I can not find a good price, seems like the Fuel pressure gauge is always so expensive. Here it is $44.00.

Does anyone know a site with Auto Meter gaugeswith good prices?

I am looking for Boost, Fuel Pressure and Air/Fuel

I have a prosport fuel pressure gauge. I'll sell it to you cheap! The gauge worked fine, but I think the sending unit that comes with it is cheap. I ended up using no fuel pressure gauge because I didn't like having to tap into the crossover line because of the whipple. I could post some pictures tomorrow of the sending unit, but here's the gauge. Mine is white or green or white at night, green during the day. It's a little difficult to wire because of the color changing.

Here's what the sending unti looks like. It's big and has screw down terminals instead of a plug harness like the autometer one.

The autometer sending unit costs $99!
