Gauges with Magnuson S/C

What are your recommended gauges with a Magnuson S/C? Digital or Analog? Brand?

Huge market with so many choices. Air/Fuel ratio seems necessary, but is boost?
I like the idea of having a boost gauge to monitor performance loss.

I'm leaning towards the Cravenspeed FlexPod Gauge Mount.

Pictures if you have them, please.

2014 Tundra 5.7 4x4 with 70k if it helps.

 

I'm a noob, but boost is less important than afr in my opinion, I don't know if boost has actually been "useful" for me, though it can be helpful if I don't want to be pushing the truck hard (it mostly serves as a load/throttle position indicator for me more than anything). I have a digital afr/boost combined gauge from Innovate which I really like (it'll display AFR, Boost, Boost/AFR, AFR/Boost, and Peak Boost, and can be programmed to alert you of certain limits if you want), I've never had an analog afr gauge (if that's even a thing) and my gut says a digital would be better if there's a choice since you'd have a higher refresh rate than an analog. On the flip side, I've cross referenced my boost readings with an analog gauge and the opposite is true for boost, the digital gauge is taking rapid snapshots of information, so if I'm floored the boost level is constantly changing by small increments. With the analog gauge the boost reading is more "stable" since the needle cant instantly jump around. I could see this being nice for afr too I guess... Also I think (or at least on the analog boost gauge I tried) the boost line goes straight to the gauge, so you have to run a hose to the gauge itself. With the digital gauge there's just a little wire bundle that goes to the gauge, and there's a boost sensor that I mounted in the engine bay that the boost port goes to.

Point being, digital is a lot more jittery readings that are constantly changing and analog flattens that jitter out but potentially cant react as fast and give you as detailed of information. Mine's a 2008 so different interior layout, but I made a custom bezel where the stock brake controller goes. Easy to glance at, and keeps it looking pretty factory which I wanted; might give you some ideas:

 

I just ordered the CravenSpeed mount, does anyone have pics of their wire routing?

Nevermind

 

Did you have to modify the AEM AFR bezel? or do the X-series fit well?

 

Aem hit the wheel. Shop that installed it said they used some all thread and washers to space it back. I see the washer but not sure about the bolt/all thread. Pics if it helps

 

This helps a lot! thank you so much!

 

The PSB-1 did not seem like it would fit yet did.

I just got the Auto Meter fuel pressure gauge, it's just dropped in.

 

Me thinks this should be on Sniv's Speed Shop!

 

I read on cravenspeed website and there was a warning about AEM and Innovate gauges not fitting well. But that's good to know real world results could be different. I really like AEM and their auto dim feature.

 

Fuel pressure gauge is in, need to get the light wired up.
