I wouldnt trust any gauge company that doesnt list weather the gauge is mechanical or electrical. Mechanical gauges are Illegal to use unless you have a race only car. They are also very dangerous to the driver. I would Save the cash and get the gauges from a repuitable company like autometer. There is alot of truth in the old saying "You get what you pay for"

Looks like an MSD light where you need the RPM pill.

Spend the cash and get a Raptor.
