Been searching the archives, but can't get any part numbers...what boost/vacuum guages is everyone running?

And although I know it's controversial, what about A/F Guages?

Whats so controversial?
Mine has told me a few times what's going on.
Once when I changed turbo's and used an 02 sensor that was buggered it went full rich.
Another couple times when I blew my IC off it went radical and favoured the lean side.
Mine has paid for itself .
Autometer # 5775 Phantom series

My A/F gauge is a Cyberdyne, don't remember the model #. I'd rather have it than not have it.

Like Gary said.... 60 bucks or so is well worth the money! But if money is no object, a "wide range" meter at around $300 would be better(if that's the contraversial part).

Steve, A wide range is where I want to go next. seems to be a must have for some of the after market engine management systems.
