    My nitrous pressure one is nice. My fuel pressure one broke. Hit or miss I guess.

    Was yours like mine, like 3 strand aluminum wiring? And not nearly enough of it?

    My wideband and fuel pressure are Autometer C2's. My nitrous is glowshift, and I only bought it because when it's off you can't tell what it is. Wideband and fp in the pillar, np beside the HVAC in a pod like oleshifty is selling on here.

    When the wiring is only for signal, it doesnt really matter. I automatically assumed I'd have to add wire to anything. My issue was my super human strength tightening the screws on the sending unit broke it off.

    you get what you pay for with gauges

    i run all autometer phantom series

    fuel pressure
    wideband
    boost
    oil temp
    trans temp
    EGT


    some gauges arent going to help you unless you have a way to do something about it like a wideband. One of the best gauges but unless youre the tuner then it doesnt help you much, EGT has came in handy knowing how timing and fueling effects, i like my boost gauge to use as a diagnosis tool to measure vaccum [it also helps you determine idle timing based off vaccum]
    fuel pressure is nice to determine if pump or pumps can keep up with said power level

    2002 Silverado - 427Lsx w/ Twin gt4202s
    2010 Silverado crewcab Z71 - 5.3litre w/ procharger
    2000 Wrangler - 5.3litre with some stance
    2014 Xsport- 3.5 Eco boost
    412 Motorsports

    it ain't that I'm too big to listen to the rumors, It's just that I'm too damn big to pay attention to 'em..That's the difference

    If I were you I'd run a wideband and an Interceptor scan gauge.
