Thanks.

Default I have had both, and prefer AWE.. cheaper and the EFU doesnt refresh quickly enough for my liking

the EFU seemed to skip around because of the low refresh rate and didn't give as clear a reading as AWE's mechanical vent gauge

Default I have the EFU, and I have used the AWE boost gauge (in an A4).

I think the vent-boost is out of my line of sight too much....and the AC would make water condense on it too.

Default Condensation on the gauge when the A/C is on... others with this problem?>>>(more)

sounds like EFU is the way to go? Is the refresh rate really that bad on the EFU 4U?

Thanks again.

Default EFU because of the geek factor.

AWE if you just need something functional.
