Gauge and Pod Suggestions Needed

I am looking at getting some glow shift gauges for my dash. I want a vacuum/boost gauge but I was wondering what other two gauges I should get to fill out a 3gauge pod. I was thinking maybe Oil Pressure and maybe Gas/Exhaust Temp Gauge.

Any suggestions?

Also I'm looking for a good 3 gauge dash mounted pod. I though Rexpeed had a nice CF universal dash pod but I can't find it anywhere. They had a post about designing a few pods but I can't seem to find the post anywhere.

Any suggestions would be appreciated

Thanks.

aah universal gauge pods look like crap.. IMO.. Im waiting for someone to mold one or make frog eyes for our cars.. Ive played with alot of universal ones as well as ones specific for cars and you have to heat them and form them around your piller and it still sticks off a bit so its not molded right in.. and really it looks like crap.

As far as guages go.. im looking at boost and exhaust temp.. oil pressure is good and so is Air Fuel ratio.. i know oil pressure can be a pain to install depending on where our oil pressure dummy light is on the engine block..

I'd like to see someone design and develop a bezel mount gauge cluster.

Besides the boost guage, I would DEFINATELY get a temp guage for your transmission. Good to know just before when your TC-SST is about to overheat on you.

Has there been any dash gauge pod designed for the Evo X? I would think it would be the same.

The only 3 I have seen were a triple A pillar, under a/c carbon fiber, and an on dash above the radio(ugly). They were all in evox forums. I can check where when I get home or at least post pics for you. I have thought about relocating the hazard switch under the ac controls, and putting a couple in the fake cf piece.

Lots of pics in the website link that was posted above, just go to photo gallery once you click that link, ami-customs.com. Wait is around 2 months currently. Other goodies are a secret soon to be released.

Post i made in evo general, the look is 100% oem and fits into the oem clips to make it look like it came off the line with it.
