Gauge options

    I just purchased 3 60mm STRi gauges for $250. Specifically boost, EGT and oil pressure. I currently have 2 Defi gauges (old and out of calibration) that are in the dash cluster. I hate it....it rattles and hides my low fuel light.

    My clock pod is currently an OEM gauge pod with the TurboXS Wideband O2 and my SMC meth controller in it. I kinda like those being in direct view where I don't have to look down.

    So looks like the only option is the 3 gauge pillar pod. What is a good company that makes one? Also if anyone can think of where to put the WBO2 and the meth controller in plain driving view I'll get the Defi 3 gauge clock pod. The slot beside the cupholder is out of the question....my turbo timer is there.

    I've got my WBo2 mounted on my rearview mirror.
    It's a thin mount though, and I'm not familiar with the TXS unit.
    Could you put the meth controller in the top left-most corner of the dash, where it meets the
    windshield?

    I could put the meth controller there but would it look clean? My WBo2 box is frigging HUGE! Dunno why TurboXS did that!

    can you remove the screen of the wideband and mount it somewhere nicer? will take some work but it isn't terrible difficult

    That's what I would love to do. It's just a circuit board and the screen.
