found a set of glow shift gauges and gauge pod on ebay for 200.... didnt know if there worth a heck or not any one have them kinda thought it was kool that you could change the color of them...

thnx
 
What gauges are they? Different gauges are different prices, for example Boost, pyro are usually 50-70 per gauge and fuel pressure can be 130-200 just by itself. Ive never heard of glowshift but everybody started somewhere.

u get boost, egt, transtemp, and 3 pod pillar mount... for 199 there on ebay bunches of them lots of good feedback for them but wondered if any one on here had them
 
i bought them for my ford but the boost gauge never worked right it wouldnt read anything under 10psi, but after 10 psi it was good, there egt probe seemed cheap like it might break off in the exuast and go through your turbo but it never did.
 
u can order them straight from glow shift i have put several sets in only one gauge screwed up on me

o god im wanting to put a bd super b special turbo on it last thing i want is somethin to go through it lol...
 
no one said it actually did so thats a good sign. if your that worried swap an autometer egt probe on.
 
I've had one set an a buddy has used 2 sets and they're ok. Its kinda luck of the draw an between the 2 of use we're about 66 percent. I much prefer my Isspro's but you might get lucky an land a good batch.
 
ya isspro's are pretty dandy but thats a pretty hard deal to beat id even go as far as to say those look better than isspro's and u can change the color.
 
We've installed a few sets.

Here is a metaphor for a comparison between them and Isspro, Dipricol, Autometer.

Isspro is like Charmin ultra soft 2 ply, Glowshift is like Dollar Store Single ply... it gets the job done but is not near as nice or reliable.
 
Fuel pressure guag on mine never worked. Don't really caare for them. Have a set of isspros I'm gonna put back in if I ever get around to it.
 
got mine installed a few days ago, the color changing button on the trans temp is messed but it changes, other than that i like them. tho if i were to do it again i would go with more expensive gauges. but for the price on these you cant go wrong!!! i would say go fo them.
 
I asked for them for my b-day 209.00 with free shipping for the p-stroke pillar and 3 guages. its better than nothing, and you can sell the guages and upgrade later if needed.......
 
I have been looking at them and wondering if they are any good so after reading I think I will give them a try.
 
I have them my pyro sticks sometimes. I would go with Isspros. O ya and the boost gauges rattles.
 
i think they might also have some sort of warranty on them? im sure they do and you could send them back if one is crap
 
I ran em for a while and the only problem is my fuel pressure gauge was always messing up
