      Any new guage manufacturers out?

      I haven't been keeping up with the times over the past year so I was curious if there was any new gauges out besides the Auto Meter family of gauges which everyone and their momma has. I'm currently using Speed Hut gauges but they are kinda crappy. So what's out there 👍

      Depends on what you are looking for. Lots of guys are using tablets or racepak. Dakota digital vhx. Oem look or aftermarket
      My camaro had Dakota but my race car has a digital touch screen that stream's the EFI data.

      Wow can you post a picture of your race gauges? My car is like a road race theme so looks are important

      Yeah the dang speedo keeps moving because it's picking up the signal from the tach. I rewired it like they said and nothing changed. I put a new cam in and now it's even worse. I gave up on em. Live and learn

      Where are you picking up the tach and speed signal from? Both of my cars have SpeedHut gauges, and neither the GPS or normal speedo has ever had anything like that happen with a 6AL ignition box. If the GPS speedo does not have a clear signal it will jump around.

      Also, which series of gauges did you use the low, mid, or high end?

      Sorry you're having trouble, but I doubt it's the gauge's fault... I love my SpeedHuts.

      I'm in agreement. There must be something else going on here. How about a video of what's going on?

      Ive already sent Speed Hut a video and talked to then on the phone. They were the one's that told me what was causing my speedo to move and acknowledged that it was a issue with some of their gauges.

      My buddy that did my harness for the pcm is gonna come see if he can get it to stop so I won't have to buy new gauges.

      They need to be separated and shielded from each other.... Keeping in mind it's a fiberglass car whichever is known for causing these kinds of issues ....remember mid -60's corvettes with the distributer covers to prevent issues with the radios

      Its a steel body car. They told me to separate them and i did as best as I could. The guy on the phone told me they were making changes to their gauges to prevent this from happening but that doesn't help me. ��

      Not to even mention it was a pain in the ass to get the gas gauge set right. It wouldn't take any settings so they had me reclock it. It's not perfect but id be ok with it if that was the only issue.

      First I've heard of any issues with Speedhut. Can you tell us what line so others can be aware.

      Thanks
