Did someone say $700 for those gauges??? Yeah, they're ugly for that price lol!

Depends on what you are going to do with the car. If you aren't ever going to get the car tuned and just want them for monitoring vitals:

Boost, oil pressure and EGT

If you're going to get tuned sometime in future:

Boost, Wideband AFR and EGT

Or get all 4 like me .

Good choice . Ensure the wideband is one that can be logged by EvoScan. AEM, Innovate or Zeitronix are good starts.

www.extremepsi.com

Its about the cheapest website I have found. I have only found certain vendors that can beat the price on occasion so you might want to check. I like Zeitronix but they are a little expensive. It seems that Innovate is having more and more people having trouble with their LC1 so I may not buy one of those. I think I may get a Zeitronix myself.

Didn't know about this site before. Interesting will have to check them out. I usually go through z1, 500whp and a few others. I've spent enough with them that I can usually call them and work a deal but that site is really cheap .

How is their shipping/service? Cause I know some of the uber cheap sites have crappy shipping/services sometimes (see LancerShop).

Edit On closer inspection even without bargaining on some of the usual suspects they are more expensive for a lot of parts. Still useful site to keep in my list I suppose if their service is good.

Which Downpipe fits best with the 06 MR? No power differences between all the 3"?

Buschur/Tanabe/TurboXS/Invidia/Agency Power/Helix/Megan/Works

Missed a couple I'm sure.

I'd guess they are all the same, or VERY close.

Their shipping service is fast. I have ordered a few things from them. They are only cheap on certain things though which I am sure you have found. For some reason some of their parts aren't cheap at all.

Mr.Furley I have owned the TurboXS and Tanabe. I can tell you I like the tanabe better. The TurboXS didn't fit that well on my MR. It fits better on my buddies GSR but the Tanabe just has massive clearance everywhere and it makes the car feel better. Has quicker respone and no loss in power being 2.75in as far as I can tell. Almost all the Norcal guys run the tanabe and make 350+ on low reading mustang dynos with FP Greens. The only other two I would consider is the Helix V2 or the Works.
