Ok Team. If you had the following Autometer gauges, (listed below), installed in your naturally aspirated MM what would be your next set of gauge(s) to install?
1) Oil pressure
2) Volt Meter
3) Trany Temp.
Thanks!

BOOST! and Fuel Pressure!
Correct me if I'm wrong, but don't we have a real volt meter? Mine usually shows 14 V, and lowers appropriately when the lights, AC, etc. are on at idle. Also, after putting on my pulleys recently, I noticed even more lowering of voltage at idle with accessories on, like I would have expected.

Yes Ross you are correct the volt meter was and is real.

MI2QWK4U why do you recommend a boost and fuel pressure, when I don't have a SC?

The air fuel mix guage sounded cool Logan has, but I think I later read that he is annoyed by it now?
getting a new Volt meter just to match the other new guages is the only reason to swap it out.
I have oil temp and trans temp and they are boring, they just sit there.
At least I can hit the power window switch to watch my volt meter move.
the air fuel seems cool as it is constantly changing as you drive/accelerate.. but I don't know how complex the sender is to install??

Actually, the voltmeter that comes with the car IS real...it's only the oil pressure gauge that's fake...
But to answer your question...maybe an oil temperature gauge or that slick AutoMeter A/F ratio display...

Glen at the time I had the Jerry tune I did not have UD pulleys installed but my max. RWHP=270 and max. RWTQ=304.
I did not have any stock baseline numbers before I started the mods. I wish I did.
My goal is to reach RWHP of 300. I was hoping the Paul's High Performance/Dennis Reinhart honed intake mod would push me over the 300 mark but it seems the dollar to RWHP ratio did not add up when Dennis tested it.
The last time I herd anything about this mod Dennis was planning to do some additional fine tuning.
