Default Which 2 gauges?

So i dont want to use the a pillar gauge pod so i was going to go with the gauge pod that replaces the plastic piece in front of the gauge cluster and behind the steering wheel but it only has a slot for 2, so for an all motor set up, probably will eventually go with spec b's and everything that goes along with it, which 2 gauges would be best for me to run? thanks.

I have one of these, I used to have the A Pillar pod and went with the Gauge surround so it wouldn't stick out as much.

IMO Its a cheesy piece of crap, The plastic is thin and bendable (Like a rubbermaid barrel) and it doesn't fit so great. I'm going back to the A pillar pod.

So the oil temp and pressure should do. one of my concerns is running to lean, ill have a VAFC so i dont want to make any changes and run lean and not know it <my friend did this to his lude, ran good times but didnt realize he was running lean> Any other suggestions?

if you tune the VAFC on the dyno, running lean wont be a problem


but yeah, oil temp and pressure are good guages to have

well we already have a water temp guage, but no oil pressure or oil temp, so thats one way to look at it. however, if i had to choose just 2, i'd do a oil temp and a water temp. from what i understand the factory water temp guages is a just a 3 position type thing, with 'cold', 'normal', and 'hot', IE, not too accurate.

How are you guys installing the temperature senders (for those with electronic gauges)?
