ok, so i'm thinking about putting some gauges in my car. I'm seeing that everyone puts oil pressure and water temp in theirs, but what is the point of those if you already got them on the dash??? what are 2 gauges(even if those) that i should get in order to keep an eye on whats going on under the hood???

I like the a/f guages but I also have nitrous so.....

I would say get a boost one and a huge tack, like a 300mm one

n20 and fuel pressure if spraying

well i'm going to get a boost one when i supercharge it, but that won't happen for a good couple years. anybody have any other considerable mentions???

Well the stock gauges arent accurate at all, so the oil and water are good to get. I have vac/boost, trans temp(a must have with a stalled auto), and teh crappy narrowband a/f ratio(worthless) My next two will be oil and water, i shouldve got those first.

what mounting style is the easiest to install??? i'm one of those guys who think the full pillar looks best, but i'm not sure how to run the wires with that.

what's the point???? the gauges on the dash are electrical...you want accuracy go mechanical!!! I have a ford racing oil pressure gauge on a dual pod on the pillar post and a ford racing gauge for temp there also = very accurate I know when I'm running 180 185 190 and so on do you??? on the cowl I just bought a cowl that houses two gauges one is for nitrous and the other is yet to be determined..probably gonna get a volt gauge but they are autometer gauges on the cowl FTW!!!!
