Don't for the love of god get a metal shift knob if you live in any climate with temperatures over 90 your going to notice a sizzling sound when the palm of your hand contacts the shift knob after a hot bake.

Get the boost gauge for sure.

MBC, or shift knob + driving gloves
I have the stock MR shift knob, nice and polished metal, I just wear leather gloves whenever I drive (mainly to keep my dirty hands off the wheel)

only reason I was shying away from the boots gauges/MBV/ TB ect..
is as I really want to get in all in a package (stage1), she may spring for one of them, though she likes me shes not buying me an exhaust i just figured untill then a BG may be benificial

I think he means under $100

get a boost gauge- or tell her to pitch in with other people(family or Friends) to get you your package.

One big gift from everyone instead of socks & sweaters

yeah dude, get the boost gauge. It's the cheapest for now. Then next maybe a MBC. Then exhaust. I'm kinda out of cheese too. Gotta take baby steps for now. ya know.
