Default Need to gauge some interest

I'm looking at getting some gauges, I'd like to here from those of you running them what's the best/worst? What to look for and stay from I guess. I want to get a wideband I know, and then maybe a multi function, i've always liked those possible one with egt's and the 0-60's 1/4 mile.

Anyways, thanks in advance guys!

Can I ask a sidequestion? What's the difference between wideband and narrow... and to answer you I've heard the Aeroforce gauges are the ones to get period

I'm told narrow don't measure enough to be worth the cost

get the WB, narrow uses the stock O2 sensors and dont really give you a good reading especially if you're gonna do datalogging. i have Innovate WB a/f, autometer z series mechanical boost, and autometer z series electric fuel pressure. i went w/ the innovate bc it has a good reputation and was pretty affordable as far as WB's go. and you cant go wrong w/ autometer, it is tried and true, i went w/ the z seried bc i wanted something black and plain w/ a black bezel. the aeroforce gauge is great so i hear. i think if you plan to go FI, the WB a/f, mechanical boost and fuel pressure gauges are what are useful to keep track of your FI.

I'll eventually go f/i but for now instead of a boost gauge I was thinking one of the multi functions. I don't want to have a boost gauge and no boost but I would like to start keeping a tab on my parameters so that I will be familiar with everything when the time comes heard it also helps quite a bit with tuning

AeroForce Interceptors. I have two and they're awesome. They can also display boost when the time comes.

I'd say get a triple gauge pillar pod with a WB and a dual set of AeroForce Interceptors.

A dual set of Interceptors is like $400. I think a WB is about $400 as well. The pillar pod will be around $120 I think.

I'm working on a hook up for the pods, and that's what I was afraid of on the gauges. Think it's worth the investment?
