Which gauges to buy with the S/C
Is the only option (from Auto Meter) the Phantom series gauges? What color do they light up at night?
I need a 0-100psi fuel pressure and a boost gauge that tops out at 20psi MAX. Hopefully more like 15psi.
I want white faced to match the stock dash.
I guess I go with these correct?

Those would look good. I have the carbor fiber boost gauge and I think it looks pretty good. I haven't bought a fuel pressure gauge yet. They're a bit pricey and I'm not sure I really want to up the boost more anyway. After unplugging the IMRC I haven't had any issues w/ pinging.

My Autometer electric fuel guage is still sitting in the box. Don't know how to installed it, Scalbert have some plumbing on his. I just didn't feel save to do what he did.

So they will light up at night, etc.
Mechanical or Electrical?
I know I need electrical for the fuel pressure.

You already know my suggestion, but i think the Ultra-Lights would indeed match up pretty well.
Almost all the gauges are back lit by a bulb which can be made red/green etc. by putting a supplied bulb "condom" over them.

Just a recommendation - don't run fuel into the cabin!!
Autometer Ultra-Lite #4376 for boost and Autometer Ultra-Lite #4363 for fuel pressure - they should be under $350 for both. These are the guages Blue and I use.
Buy them on-line... probably the best price - try Limit Engineering and ask for John.

Revving at 9K...
Have you checked out Defi Guages? I have 2 of them. Boost and EGT, both are 60mm.
The kit comes with the controller until that allow more guages to be plug in in the future if you so choose. I bought them for my S2K, but then changed my mind on installing them.
If you are interested, let me know.

With those two parts you can use the hose provided by Comptech and have the 1/8 FNPT port for the sensor.
