Need a 5th Gauge Idea

I currently have DiPricol EGT, Boost, Trans temp, and will be adding electric fuel pressure when installing my fuel system. I was thinking on getting either a 2 or 3 pod windshield pod. Any recommends on either one or two other gauges ? I was thinking maybe rail pressure for the future. Any other ideas or recommends ? Do they make a colored 2/3 windshield pod or dom you have to do the paint can trick ?

Maybe a guy should have Boost 1, Boost 2 (Twins), EGT, Fuel Pressure, Rail Pressure, Trans Temp.

If I were to go mechanical Id run five gauges. Boost, EGT, Trans temp, Fuel Pressure and Rail Pressure.

Id used a triple pillar mount for Boost EGT and Tranny,

Double steering column for the Fuel and Rail Pressure.

Thats just me.

On my truck I have the two boosts on the column and 4 on the overhead

Rail pressure
EGT
Fuel pressure
trans temp

I'd like to have a manifold drive pressure as well, but I refuse to put gauges on the A pillar.

I have the 4 gauge dash pod like 1slo MM, if I were to want another gauge I'd be considering the SRT-10 a-pillar single pod with the grab handle. If I were thinking about more gauges than the 4-gauge dash pod I'd go to the overhead pod that mounts up at the rear view mirror. You can get them in 2 -3 - or 4 gauges, would make for a total of 8 or 9 if you used both the single a-pillar and the overhead. ROOM TO PLAY.
