Took 1 guy to install mine about two solid days of work to get it done, and he only charged me $500! Ive got a boost, wideband and fuel pressure gauge but the wideband isn't on yet.

Boost and Gas Pressure can tell me exactly what you guys are looking for, less accurately of course. I know if there's 11PSI of boost, I should be around 45-60PSI of fuel pressure. It's good enough for anything that will go on during street driving.

When I was racing, I used the racepak, which was the best guageset I could ever recomend, at which point I had everything, from boost/fuel/oil/wideband/waterTemp/oilTemp. Everything. So yeah, for racing, you need more, for driving on the street where you might run someone from a stoplight every once and a while, or just driving around and hitting the strip every once and a while, boost and fuel pressure are more than adequate.

200AZ.5GT so you would recommend getting a boost and fuel gauge rather than a boost and air fuel pressure if your just gonna play on the streets a bit and hit the track about twice a month at the most? bc i see the widebands are pricey compared to a fuel pressure gauge but i heard the wideband is more of a tuning tool just kinda stuck in between the two wideband or fuel pressure gauge

U gotta drill and thread a spot for the o2 sensor. It might possibly come with a flange that you just weld on. (that is pre-threaded)
