I have been looking at guages and found these on Kennedy's site. Anyone have any experience with these are they overkill for a slightly modded truck? They seem a bit expensive, but they are really 2in1 guages so I can live with the price. Any help is appreciated.

Purchased SPA 211 and SPA 212 approximately 1 year ago. I am on my third 211 and my second 212. Fantastic when they work but apparently QC is lacking in manufacturing process. Really like the concept, however continually replacing them is a royal pain. Current 212 is ready to go back. Backlighting seems to be main problem, I set mine green until they burn out, then to red until I have to replace them. Probably at end of warranty, so will be looking for another brand!!!!!

man, that doesn't sound good. Anyone else have any better luck?

I've heard similar things from a lot of different people.

I thought about these at one time, but changed my mind. Quite a bit of info on this thread:

I purchased two gauges and have sent both back once for back light replacement. I like the recall function, I like the programmable warning lights, I like having 4 gauges in two mounting holes. But I'm undecided if I would purchase SPA again.:confused:

I think the Nexus gauges look pretty good, I just don't like the "wired" remote for programming. :( I'm waiting for the wireless remote version if they ever do it and a higher boost gauge.

The boost guage goes up to 60 psi

How much do you need ? :eek:
