What Guages or Electronics?
I'm turboing soon...what Gauges or Electronics will I need?
Boost Gauge?
Boost Controller?
Turbo Timer?
Air/Fuel?
Oil Temp/Pressure?
I was going to order the Pod/boost gauge/Oil Temp gauge from Hotshot.
I was also going to order the Profec B controller and Greddy timer.
Is there and electronic gauge that will monitor Oil temp, pressure, Air/Fuel and others or should I just get the regular gauges?
I'd like to avoid the pod and gauges.
Recommendations accepted...prices you estimate would be nice as well.

I've decided to go with the Greddy lineup...
Profec B Controller
Timer
EGT
Oil
Boost
I'll probably get a dash mount kit to mount the actual gauges. I was thinking about cutting out the area where the two center vents are and installing them in there but that's a huge project.
The Timer and Profec B will probably sit on top of the steering column as the center area where the stereo goes is full.

What he said...
There was an empty spot so I rerouted the plug and then trimmed out the location to fit the Profec...tight fit, too.
