Question Gauge, NEED TO PICK 3..........

I need to pick 3 For the pillar..

I'm going to put a boost guage because i want one

If i run juice then ill def. put a Nit. pres

but if i dont, then i have 2 left to pick from instead of 1

So I was thinking

Fuel Pressure, EGT, Tranny temp, Water temp, or ???

really dont want to put more than 3 extra gauges in the L
thanks

I think the boost gauge does nothing but satisfy your ego. I won't tell you how your truck is "running". I'd spend the money on more useful ones like water temp, tranny temp, fuel pressure, oil pressure or EGT personally.

the stock one is way off and stops at 10.
at least I have an idea of where my truck is when it goes way into the black on the stock gauge

Never said the stock one was accurate. But how is accurate boost going to tell you if your truck is running correctly or in danger? That was my point...
