Id say go with a Boost, a Pyormeter, and fuel pressure if you plan to run a lift pump. The factory trans temp from what ive been told is accurate. Look into the Di procols. They are a really high quality gauge.

I'm installing Autometer Ultra-Lite II Pyro & Boost in a Autometer Overhead Pod. It looks good.
