There are a few different brands out there I have been thinking about Pro-sport, but the Defi are also nice.

Sure thing. I have all Defi gauges except for my AFR (It's AEM and goes with the ECU.) Here are some pictures:

Don't go with Pro-Sports! They're garbage! I've had like 3 of them fail... It's worth the money for a gauge that will work forever.

WOW! Of course, you can barely see them on this site... Lemme link them to a site that's willing to support a terribly basic image upload... Hold on a tick...

EDIT: Fixed!

I have heard of "lag" issues with electronic gauges. Also, my prosports work fine. Two of them are missing senders, but the boost works well.

Actually, it's funny because it's not the actual Prosport gauges that suck. It's the sending units, really. Only one gauge has actually failed on me. I've had a lot of sending units fail. However, just like you, the boost gauge still work perfectly fine. Go figure. *shrug*

Those Defi Gauges look awesome!
Thank you for posting pics.
I like the colors and placement too.

Well turns out I can't get green Defi boost gauge anymore.
I really wanted the gauge to match my another dash gauge lights.

Is there any other Gauge brand that is good as Defi and won't fail?
That also comes in green?

The factory Momo boost gauge is my last choice because it's just not flashy. LOL!
