Which gauges should I get?
Ok, I cant really think of anything I want for X-mas, but I got the idea to get a boost gauge. Right now I have an Autometer, but I just have this problem with it having a area for 0. Anyway I was looking into new gauges, and I cant figure out which ones to get. I dont really want to ask for anything more than 200 bucks, and I want it to be mechainical. If its possible, id like to one day eliminate all my stock gauges, and have a panel in there of all aftermarket ones. Now im just concerned with boost and EGT. If I have an EGT I dont need an a/f right? Do EGT's come with sensors? I was thinking a Greddy white face, maybe Blitz CF black light gauges. Anyone know anything about these "Pivot/SPW" Race & Rally gauges? Do mechanical gauges have peak/hold?
All input is appriciated.

All I know is that after getting my greddy 60mm peak hold EGT. I'm never buying a gauge that doesn't have memory recall again. it's so sweet. I want to ditch my crappy autometer boost for a 60mm greddy now too.
get the peak hold one's, it's worth it.

Do they have a mechanical Boost with peak/hold? Id like to pick a series of gauges that has a nice line, cause im sure ill need more gauges later, and id want to use the same brand.

I believe most peak hold (read, good
) gauges have both these features.
