http://www.jmdracing.com/images/thumbs/ac_gr7005c.jpgS7 5" TACH * 4-in-1
The Multi Tachometer utilizes all of the same design features as the standard S7 Tachometer as well as intergrates oil temperature, oil pressure, and water temperature measurements into the background of the gauge.
Built it Shift Light & External Shift Light

I found the Tach for 199, the boost gauge is about 50 and there is a A/F gauge also but cant get the pic to work. Anyone have any experience with these gauges? Worth it?

I like it over all, but the question is, how good are the products?? I haven't read anything about that company, so I can't say it's good or bad. But look around, and see how dependable these gauges are. Looks wise, not bad! A little too much for my taste. However, done right, you'll be good!.

I don't like integrated components. I prefer to be able to change or service components individually. That's why I don't like things such as TV/VCR combos.

that tach sucks balls - please dont get it and the bottom guages are obviously a cheap DEFI rip-off


its your money/car - do what you gotta do

I think they look like ass. The word "ricey" comes to mind.

wouldnt the gauges inside the tach be a little small to see? if the tach is a 5" and there are 3 inside of it, plus numbers for the tach itself, then the inside gauges are what, like 1"?

K.I.S.S
Keep it simple, stupid. :D:D

The tach is too busy, I prefer to keep my guages simple so I never have to actually look at them. My peripheral vision is decent enough to read my stock guages while watching the road, but that tach just has too much going on. I want those guages all seperate and easy to read.

The boost guage is pretty though. Not my thing, but if you like that it's all cool.

not tooo bad, I've seen worse. Use stock tach in car and just hook up a shift light....less rice looking, as for the blacked out boost gauge, that doens't look too bad....

tach is pointless.... most people have water temp gauge in their car anyway.. u could save urself some cash by buying that boost gauge (which is awesome...) an oil temp and oil pressure gauge and mount them somewhere... if u get an a-pillar 3 gauge pod you will spend the price of the tach for 3 gauges and a gauge pod.

i like that the boost gauge goes black when its off tho.
But how would you make boost with the ignition in the off position... it adds to the sleeper effect.. someone looks in ur car sees the gauges and doesnt know what they read... then when u race he finds out u have turbo...

I seen the tach gauge maybe a year/2 ago. I dont know much about it, but i dont really care for it. The boost gauge is pretty hot. I never really liked the tach gauges since i have a gauge built in from the company dont see why i need a aftermarket 1. Just put a shift light in your car or have your check engine light chipped for that.

See i just saved u some $.

I like the blacked out gauges, not really impressed with the tach(too big). But I wanted to see if anyone had any experience with them. Thanks for the comments.
