Boost Gauge....
I got it all working and what not my question is, When i turn off the car, the light on the gaue will go out but i have the power wire getting power even when the car is off, will that drain my battery? the power wire is hooked up to the door locks. Plz let me know ha
I'm not sure which company makes your gauge, but my Defi gauges have four wires:
1. Constant power
2. Switched
3. Illumination
4. Ground
If your gauges are switching off when you turn the car off, it seems you've wired them correctly, and no, the gauges will not drain your battery if what you say is true.
On a sidenote: In the future, please make even the smallest attempt at using proper grammar and punctuation.

Sorry but its a weak point i have hahaha, Its auto meter it has 3 wires, white for the light, red for power and black is ground. White is hooked up too power door locks, white is the cig outlet.
The red wire (for power) should be spliced into a switched source (such as the cigarette lighter).
However, since your post said you had the white wire spliced into two different locations, I'm not quite sure what you meant.
I also searched for some Auto Meter instructions just now and found this: http://www.egauges.com/pdf/AutoMeter/526.pdf
It confirms what I described in my previous post.
