Been thinking about doing this for a long time. I finally got around to starting the project today. The only thing that I am missing is the Tach which goes in the middle of this whole thing.
At least now I will be able to see what is happening with the motor.

You gonna go all race on this car? Cause thats exactly what I want to do with the guage pod, but the only problem is I gotta think about letting my G/F drive the car that I wanna do the guage setup with and she'll need a MPH guage. and the other lights. I'm sure I can get around all of that with her. HOPEFULLY LOL. Looks killer. I started messin with my guages today also, I got a Tach, Battery, Oil PSI, and Temp guage so far.

I have another 4 gauges which I have not decided where they are going to go. One of which is the water temp gauge.

Yeah put the tach and the center and screw a speedo. Is that a fuel pressure gauge on the left?.....did you have to buy an isolater with that?....how about that oil gauge....is it electrical or mechanical and how do you plan on hooking that one up?

Water and temp are electric, the fuel is manual which you have to use an isolator for. I still have to put LED's in for the turn signal and High beam indicators. Once I put the tach in, if I can fit another gauge in, I will do so as well. The A/F gauge is going to be sold, I want a pyrometer instead.

Naaa, I am going to run a pyrometer. With a Haltech, I do not have to run an o2 sensor if I chose not to--that way I can run race gas if need be.

Be careful with them things.....I had a friend who had an Autometer that kept track of exhaust gas temperatures at the turbo and the extreme heat corroded the tip of the pyrometer and it flew into the turbo......CRUNCH....I think it is recommended that you change them ever so often.....just be careful with your turbo.
