Autometer Gauges
I am buying the Autometer Triple Gauge Pillar. What I want to know, is what Guages do you suggest that I get to go in them? I'm not running Nitrous yet, but plan to in the future.
I am already buying the Cobalt Series Monster Tach.
Air/Fuel Ratio
Fuel Presssure
Boost
Water Temperature
Oil Pressure
Pyrometer
I have these to choose from because I am getting the Cobalt Series Gauges.

Rep Power: 0 Im pretty sure i saw an ad for cobalt volt gauge. get oil pressure, air fuel, and volt if they have the volt, if not then build a b.s. meter for the 3rd opening until you get a real one for it....
i still think all cars should come with an oil pressure gauge from the factory.

Rep Power: 0 No need for a boost guage unless your planning on running a turbo setup.
If in the future your running N2o, you will want a nitrous pressure guage.
Oil pressure
and instead of A/F guage (unless your spending 200-300 on the guage it's not accurate) i would reccomend the fuel pressure guage for the nitrous, due to the fact that you can monitor your fuel pressure prior to and while your spraying. If your pressure drops you will detonate.
A pyrometer is very nice but pricey, they monitor your exhaust gas temperature.
You have a stock water temp guage so no need for that one.
IMO nitrous/oil/fuel pressure guages. This is going to be my setup when my ride is bottle fed.
Good luck.

Rep Power: 0 If your gonna go with nitrous, then get the nitrous xpress electronic gauge, unless you really want 800- 1200 psi of live juice aimed at your head. Im going triple pilar with the electronic nitrous gauge, electronic fuel pressure gauge, and an EGT ( pyrometer) on mine.
