Just replaced the procharger autometer boost/vac for the autometer cobalt today , the cobalt its way easier to read and looks better.

This is the one I was looking at. I think it will match the white SS cluster pretty good.
nvm I see those are silver now. Still look good though. They look white in all the pics on autometers site.

The cobalt gauges do look good. I would kind of like to keep the white face with orange need theme going though.

autometer "z" series, vac/boost. I really like being able to see the vac, good indication of engine load out of boost...

I believe it's due to a lack of a throttle plate, therefore there is little to no restriction on airflow.
