I am going to buy 3 guages. I have a areofoce, but I am going to move it cause somtimes I cant see it with the light reflecting off it. So what 2 gauges should I get. I have the trans temp and KR on the Areofoce and I am going to get a boost gauge.

I would go with either oil pressure or volts.

I think I am going to go with Prosport gauges. Anyone hear about them?

If/when I ever buy a 3-gauge pod, I intend on getting trans temp, oil pressure, and volts. I don't need to know just how much boost I'm making, just that I'm making it. If I see a problem, that's what the PT is for.

make sure you get a wideband air/fuel

tuneing will be easier

Wideband A/F, Trans Temp, Oil Pressure, Boost Gauge, and an Aeroforce.

If you dont have a HUD, you can put one in, or mount the gauges somewhere else. Like on the steering column or the cubby hole in front of the shifter.
