I'm going to get a A-Pillar Pod from Roy, and was wondering what gauges I should buy. I'm on quite a budget... so I would like to buy some fairly inexpensive gauges that are the best for the money. I'm also changing out my gauge cluster and putting in an 89+ cluster with white face gauges, so keep that in mind. I'm thinking about a 60mm triple pod, but I'm not sure. Which size is more common? I definitely need a boost gauge, but I'm not sure of the other two. I'd also like to get a boost gauge that reads in psi instead of bar, and preferrably one that only goes to 20 to 25 psi, instead of 30 so that I don't look like a pansy boosting at 12psi on a 30psi gauge. :) ANY in formation would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Thanks for the quick advice. I was also thinking of buying another one from Roy for the passenger side A-Pillar to match up. I'm wondering whether I should ask him for just the plain old pillar but glassed up and painted to match, or to get the same triple pod on the other side. I guess if I had cheap enough gauges I would go for it. :) What do ya'll think?

Boost EGT and wideband are the three I'm going with, just no in the A-pillar.
I wouldn't go with passenger A-pillar because...well, what does the passenger need to monitor?

i picture you with a dew rag and some fubu clothing, i dont know why but.. i just do.

ontopic:
Boost, EGT in the pillar everything else in the glove box or down low. Im putting wideband MAFT Pro in the glove box with a nice little custom compartment thing. I would also want to have the stock Oil Pressure and water temp replaced with something a little more accurate

This Celica was in Super Street like a year ago... I think one clock for every timezone would be very helpful.

Haha that's not my set-up, not quite my style, I don't even know what the hell that rainbow bar down behind the blinker arm is. I don't know if I'd be able to pull myself out of the car without snapping off that oil pressure gauge.


Sounds good DS, take some pictures when you're done.
