I know you got a couple bucks so get the Autometer Nexus gauges. They match the factory gauges and are probably the best autometer gauges. They are able to track data, and they have demo mode and a bunch of other crap. Youll need a control box for em which is about 150, plus gauges, but they are worth it.

HOLY ****, Guages are so expensive. I was looking at maybe paying 50 a piece for them but **** man, most of the decent ones are like 150.

unless you really need them, aka Power add, juice, or some serious sound system, I think they look gay!... I do like the pod that MattJ posted awhile back...

those nexus guages look nice but they're way too much money. and they come with a remote control, fug that. they're just guages. they had better do a lot more than just monitor stuff for that kinda money

yeah i've seen them before, actually a friend has some. but still not worth the money imo. i dont mind paying spending a lot where it is needed but guages? damn. i had nice blue autometer guages in my old car i think i paid $40 per guage. they gave accurate readings and looked sweet.

I know, I was just meaning in general...I've seen alota 6 bangers with full riced out gauges and I think they look like a Honda Civic, all u need are the internal glow lights and your all set...like wtf? LoL...

BUt yeah with a blower or serious work you really DO need gauges,
