What gauges? AEM vs AutoMeter

[sube83sti]

Looking to purchase the dual Auto Meter A-pillar pod. Thinking about getting a boost gauge and air/fuel gauge. Not sure if a fuel pressure gauge is better suited than the air/fuel gauge. My car is getting whippled soon and has 401a. Not sure if any gauges can shift color.

Do you guys recommend AEM or Autometer? They both have many series of gauges and not sure what to go with. Looking for a black faced gauge that can light up blue or red.

Doesn‘t your car have air fuel gauges on the instrument cluster? My Bullitt has it.

It’s been a long while since I’ve used an Auto Meter FP gauge, but what I do remember is the sending unit had to be filled with antifreeze and a line run into the car to connect to the gauge. If I had to do it again today, I would opt for an electric gauge, as the only other alternative would be to run a fuel line inside the car and I don’t think that is very safe.

I used glowshift. I wanted fuel and oil pressure in one. Also their boost gauge. I have replaced the boost gauge with the snow controller.

I like the AEM X series gauges. They are thin and light.

The car already has air/fuel in the dash no need to monitor that with an extra gauge. Fuel pressure and boost gauge can be useful for keeping an eye on things and can help when having issues. I plan on a boost gauge soon but not sure where I want to mount it.

All I have is a glowshift fuel pressure gauge with peak recall and low alarm. Ngauge tells me everything else.
