[urq] VDO Vision vs. Autometer Street Comp (Longish)

[Pasqualoni, James E]

Urq-folk,

I am in the process of evaluating which gauges to install into the '83, and
I've narrowed my choices to 2 1/16 in VDO Vision series and Autometer Street
Comp series gauges.  The gauges to be installed are EGT, oil temp and
coolant temp or boost.  I have already selected a air/fuel mixture gauge
which will only be used for testing/evaluation purposes.  I was hoping some
of you would reply with opinions and/or BTDT on these selections (re
install, sender/sensor adaptability, etc.).  In addition, I am considering
swapping out the oe boost gauge for a 4k coolant temp gauge.  How accurate
are the oe boost gauges?  I know that it most likely is not as responsive or
accurate as an aftermarket equivalent, and I'm ok with that.  I am
attempting to keep the interior of the urq as oe as possible, so I am
willing to live with the oe boost gauge shortcomings provided max boost
readings are fairly accurate.

Thanks is advance for your thoughts and consideration!

Jim
