Which sites? I went from a Jeep to f150 recently, so I'm not familiar with the sites yet.

Take a look at the scangauge II.

http://scangauge.com/

Do a search on here. A lot of guys have the scangauge or the dashhawk and love them. I guess its all about what you are looking for.

trans/water temp, fuel pressure and wideband would be three i would start with.
the only difference between the trans temp and water temp is the word trans or water. you can just get two senders and a 3 position switch and go back and forth between the two. this is what i did with my lightning. aem has a good wideband that isnt too pricey. im going to add a fuel pressure gauge soon as i have trans/water temp, wideband , and boost guage in a lotek pillar pod.

I went ahead and went with autometer z series, trans temp and oil temp on a 2 pod pillar. Thanks for all the help!
