It's not a full pillar? What part is it not covering? Looks full to me?

what gauges should i get for my pod???

well after a long awaited arrival i finally got my triple gauge pod from our groupbuy from this past summer. now i have to decide what kind of gauges i should get. i was thinking about an oil pressure, voltage and maybe water temp.. but i thought i would open it up to see what all you guys think. what gauges would be most to my benefit, i have a 95 4cyl that is lightly engine modded. i'm eventually planning on getting the supercharger and i know i'll probably need different gauges when i get to that piont, but what three are the best tho monitor a n/a car.

thanks,
brian

some choices incl;

volt: for audiophiles or just to keep an eye on battery strength
oil pressure: ensures proper oil levels
vaccuum: quickly diagnose vaccuum leaks
pyrometer (exhaust gas temp): early warning of lean conditions
tranny temp: monitor auto tranny temps
boost: if you intend to forced air
fuel pressure: warn of loss of fuel (leaks, pump)

whatever you do, DON'T get an air/fuel guage!

they're useless. The reading bounces all over the place and don't give you any practical feedback.

I'm still waiting on my orders, hopefully till tommarow. They look nice so far.

I have 2 extra unpainted sets if anyone wants to buy them off me. I'll post them in the buy/sell forums once I get them in.
