Who makes the best gauges/pods?
I was looking for some gauges for Oil Temp, AFR and Intake Temp. I know AEM is well known but they don't have the gauges I want. Was looking into Gloshift but I'm on the fence about them. Also wanting a dual pillar pod, any suggestions?

Are you looking strictly at Analog gauges? Or would you consider a fully configurable digital gauge?
I have a gauge project in the works for my Z using PLX Devices DM-100s. These use an OLED screen which can be fully customized. The only drawback to these gauges is finding a good hiding spot in the dash or elsewhere for the controller box. The great thing about them is being able to use 1 gauge to display multiple sensor data.

What gauges do you want? Why do you want/need an IAT gauge?

To monitor how hot/cold the air is going into the turbo. I was told that the colder the better and more efficient a turbo can be
Looking into Prosport gauges at the moment, although a fully configurable digital gauge doesn't sound too bad

Depending on your tuning setup, most gauges are pointless anyways. A good wideband, boost, and oil pressure should really be all you need (and even that's arguable). Most things can be logged with whatever your tuning solution is, and if an issue pops up it's usually too late to do anything about it by the time your gauges show you.

Then in that case I'll most, likely just get a wideband AFR. Thanks bboypuertoroc, you just saved me $160 on something that could be more useful
