Default Gauge placement in SC

Where did you guys put your gauges (boost, egt, etc). Also, which gauges (brand and size) did you use?

I'm curious. I'm thinking about putting 60 mm Greddy boost gauge in the panel between the door and the steering column. It's tempting but not very visible.

no gauges, use laptop to data log everything. Wideband is only gauge that is external and I have it resting on top of the ac vents in the center console.

You mean you use E-manage to log all the data? Sounds pretty sweet!

I just want a boost and maybe EGT gauge. I think the panel between steering column and the door would be breat except it's not too visible.

I just looked and seems like Apexi and Defi are my best options.

Mine reside in the glove box mounted to the ceiling and facing the driver. 60mm greddy egt and boost. I am mounting everything out of sight for obvious reasons. This way i can close the glove box, and cig trey (turbo timer) and the sbc is way back by the guage bezel for minimum bling.
