STRI Gauges

Looking to get two of these, probably Boost and one other (I've got the Chrono pack so most important things are covered) and was just wondering if the gauges would be all I need to fit them? I will be mounting them in an A-Pillar mount.

TIA

If you have the pod, then they come with everything else. If you are going to do an oil temp gauge then you will need another adapter because the one included doesn't fit

What about the backlighting? I think they do not come in orange like the factory. I guess you gotta add orange bulb to the list.

You can order them with orange lighting and it is a perfect match

Thanks Marwan, I will check to see if STRI do an A/F guage. Next time I'm in Saudi, I'll have to look you up

STRI don't do A/F gauges so it will be something completely useless (to me anyway) like fuel pressure Motorer03 - nice car but no pics of gauges in your gallery?

I was thinking of doing the electric boost and oil pressure ones. Anything extra required for oil pressure?

If you have a chrono pack which is 2 guages on top of the steering wheel, you do not need oil pressure measurment.

A little off topic, but those who have an oil temp guage, what temps are you seeing around town/highway driving? I'm sitting at 250-260 F highway driving...
