hey another question. i was wanting to get the boost gauge and the fuel pressure gauge, but i already have a egt and oil temp gauge on the pillar.

i was wanting to get the three place pillar pod. Is the oil temp important? should i get rid of it. or just relocate it at the bottom of the dash or something.

i got my fuel pressure gauge and hooked it up yesterday, and also replaced my fuel filter while i was at it. On the gauge my fuel pressure is 10psi. and at WOT it is about 5-6psi.

The filter i used is a WIX filter. i know you dont use the wix oil filters, but are the fuel filters ok. I was wondering what kind of filter i shoud use or if this one is ok.

by the way the Isspro gauges are very nice!

At WOT 5 to 6 is on that line no less then that. No more mods are going to be added are they?They are nice gauges.Save up for a Airdog, Fass or a MITUSA pump then there is no problem with fuel pressure.Just my 2 cents.
