Default Question on gauges...

I just ordered some gauges. I got a Fuel pressure and air/fuel gauge. My question is what else to I need besides the pod? What is the easiest way to wire it up and how?

Your one step ahead of me - I've been researching the same two accessory gauges for my '90 (and trying to determine if they would be beneficial for a non-track vehicle).

I'd be interested in comments on the new pressure sensor installation and how to tap into the existing air fuel sensor....

I am not sure exactly about the a/f ratio gauge. But I know for certain that you need a fuel pressure isolator to mount it inside the car.

Wouldnt they send that with the unit? I would hope so, considering how much I payed autometer for it.
