No gauges will run u almost 400 for trans temp,boost,pyro for a good set. Chill 250-300

What would be the difference between a good set and a middle of the road set?

And would a tranny temp be necessary if I'm not gonna pull hard with it? It is a brand new tranny. I'm not sure how built it is, but i have the paper work, i'll take a look at it.

Alright. With a stock turbo what kind if boost should I be pulling? I'm trying to figure out how high up I should have it going. I figured 0-60

Yeah 0-60 will work. Their same price. I think mine hit 35 max when I was really on it.

Well I'm smart enough to read it without the digital gauge. But I also found a 3 in 1 gauge with pyro, tranny temp, and boost. It's 175$ and a single mount should only be around 50$. Are they inaccurate?

Glow shift gauges are ****! Isspro is my recommendation but you need egt, boost and tranny. Just because its new doesn't mean it won't over heat. Are you going to save 150 with the chance of toasting your tranny? Doesn't sound smart to me.
