Who had Pillar Gauges--who has them, and what kinds of gauges do you have?

I am buying the Stillen Gauge pod for my driver side pillar. It has 2 pods and i figure one has to be EGT and the other i am not sure of. What do you guys have/suggest. Thanks

You don't have to have an EGT because you're not running any power adders (nitrous or SC). If you are getting either one in the future, then yes, you should get one. The other depends on which one power mod you're getting... either nitrous pressure or boost. A third gauge might be useful also... fuel pressure.

I am thinking about a SC, so that's why i want an EGT. What's useful about a fuel pressure? Thanks

Ahhhh... I see. Fuel pressure gauge is used to make sure you're getting enough fuel at WOT.

You're welcome.
