Default Boost Gauge & Mount reomendations?

I figure I ought to install a boost gauge to compliment my new Vortech V3 that sould be showing up soon. Anybody recommend a good gauge/mount setup? I want to keep as stock a look as possible inside so that's a concern. I like the setup where they mount down by the radio but that doesn't seem real functional as I'm usually not fiddling with a radio station while I'm tearing down the drag strip. Column mount seems most functional as I'm usually staring at the tach during a run anyway but it seems that would cover up some of the indicator lights and such on the dash...what do y'all think?

pics of interior color:


Thanks and God bless,

Down by the radio is probably not the most efficient place to stick gauges you want to see at a glance, but is your only choice if you wanna keep the interior low profile.

Otherwise, windshield pillar is a good choice too

I looked at the panel you provided the link to, any idea if that thing can be flipped over to put the radio back on the bottom and the gauges up w little higher closer to my view?

You might be able to flip that panel upside down so the gauges are at the top.. send them an email asking if that's possible
