That does look really nice!

I'm actually going to get this exact one, SPT boost gauge. i'm considering putting two more gauges underneath the AC controls, there's a little cargo area for the GRs where I put my sunglasses.

For the fellow GR's, I'm currently looking at the SPA Dual Gauges. Two readings in one gauge to save space :-)



Definitely choosing oil pressure, don't know which should be the other one. Oil Temp? Water Temp? EGT?

I actually have one of those. Mine is oil temp and fuel pressure. Brand new gauge used wire harness.

L2Read or gtfo.... i didn't say it wasn't important, i said it wasn't important that it be "readily visible" such as a boost gauge would be.
