AF doesn't tell you much , exhaust temp is more useful

I'd choose 5..none of the above. Go with Greddy Boost, Greddy Intake, and Nordskog Air/Fuel

Default Personally, i'm not a big fan of the vent gauges.

I ended up with Audimod's center boost gauge (with a tinted plexi cover) that looks stock (IMO). If I were you, I might consider a slightly different install.

Anyway, that's just my $0.02.
With the options you showed above, I personally think all analog gauges would go better with the car, though it's hard to tell which ones look best from the small pics.

Default I want to get A/F s I can see if the car is running lean... a lean condition is what caused my

engine to blow before, so I want to prevent that again!

What setup do you recommend? 3 plexiglass vent covers in the middle?
