Nice. Is that the pod your mounting them in? I figured you would mount them in the steering column dual pod. Also are you getting the custom Autometer gauges to match the truck?

AutoMeter won’t do custom work on the led backlit gauges. I tried...they flat out said they wouldn’t do it. Not even just swapping the pointers out to blue.
I’m going for a little more stealth mounting...I’m gonna use those low profile pods without the hardware in the lower corners of the dash. I test fit another single pod I had laying around there and it’s almost a perfect fit. Didn’t block my view of the other gauges at all with my height. Some 3M trim tape will definitely hold them in place there.

I'm pretty sure with the 8" cluster it can be tweaked with Forscan to display boost right on the cluster. Not as easy to see depending on how & where you mount an external gauge. The label does say "Turbo".

See the post below.

Are the OEM O2 sensors widebands?

I'd probably go with something like the innovate series wideband gauges if they aren't (just my experience with their product)
