AEM makes a boost gauge that is also a boost controller taht lets you change the psi you are at on the fly, they also make a a/f guage that actually works and will be helpful when you tune your car.

no i dont have it installed yet the kit is at the ceramic coaters they told me at best the turnover is 2 weeks, which works out good because the car isnt done getting painted yet, all the body parts are on except i havent received the mach hood and shaker so they are still waiting for the hood to paint it all at once

would it be smart to get the gauge with the boost controller part of it or a separate boost controller?

boost is a must and so is the wideband

when your running poweradders the more gauges the better, always want to know what the engine is up too.
