Auto Meter Phantom series Air/Fuel and Oil Prsssure

I wasnt going to do a copper oil line but I found out its required if using your car at the drag strip. I had some 1 inch gauges from Walmart that are really nice but I dunno. Prolly just take them back. Im all about name/quality.

As for install I plan on doing a pillar that Im going to custom make from scratch. Something on the lines like this.

brat: Once you have "everything" ($parts and $install) total everything up, I'd be curious to see how it compares to the cost of my ECU monitor which costs a lot to start but I figured would be cheaper long term.

I understand but am just interested in "monitoring expense" alone. Please keep me up to date on total (installed) cost and usfullness.
