Hornet, what Isspro gauges match factory?
The best factory match I found when shopping for mine was the Danin Pricol (Dpricol)Optix series. They are still the best i've seen out there as far as factory match goes. They are good quality gauges also. I am very happy with them. If you want, I could also PM you where I got mine as they are not a sponsor here, but I recommend to a lot of people for their C.S. also.
If you want to support the site, and use a sponsor here....contact Raul@stealthautomotive. He has a good reputation here and he will hook you up with a package deal.

Good Luck

Isspro EV is a perfect match for the factory bezel, also the performax is closer then anything else (other then the EV)...

Isspro gets my vote.

I went with Autometer Z-series....

Mine are (Bottom to top) Pyro, Boost, Trans Temp



Got some VHT paint to match the interior.....

So far, knock on wood, I haven't had any issues with my gauges.

CSIPSD answered my question, Thank You!!
Isspro EV are a perfect match and the highest quality I know of, they make many gauges for the big auto makers!! I provided the OP with a place for the best price and customer service. I can't post the address here because they aren't a sponsor.

I just got the isspro gauge set and it looks way more complicated to install than I thought. My buddy is going to do the pyrometer taping into the driver side exhaust manifold, I think I can do the rest. The only issue I see is the boost tubing into the gauge. It goes in the adapter and through a nipple type thing and screws together, but it looks like it can come right out of both sides by pulling the tubing..... I hope I am doing this correctly, I would be a total tard if I wasnt doing it right.

Once it is tightened up, it shouldn't come out. It works like a compression plumbing fitting IIRC.

Oh, so when you really tighten it down it kind of clamps onto the line, I havent tightened it all the way down yet.
