I used buy mechanical boost gauges because I was a cheap skate. After years now I prefer the electrical boost gauge as they reallllly don't cost that much more and there is no hoses/tubing going to the actual gauge in the car. I like having the tee-ed vac line source to be as short as possible and you can basically mount the electric sensor right next to the source. Instead of going through the cabin.

^^^ Just to answer my own question, you can run the vacuum line through the graumets on the side fender like the Evo X given in the How to. So everything is basically the same for the RA.

I use AEM gauges with a CP-E Gauge Pod. I didn't put mine in the A Pillar due to the fact that I didn't want to mess around with a air bag that my or may not deploy properly if there are gauges attached to it. Plus I think it looks ricey IMO.

The first four pictures are not my car but the bottom one is. I also included the link to CP-E's website.
