Default Mrscode's 06 GT is getting blown

We are going with a ProCharger D1SC with upgraded 850HP intercooler, Kook's stainless longtubes and Kook's stainless catted x-pipe. We are deciding whether to change out gears, but haven't made up our minds. Anyhoo, I am looking at a gauge pod for oil press, fuel press and boost.

Don't wanna do an A-pillar pod, but I did find this. It is paintable and I think it looks pretty cool. Thoughts and opinions welcomed. THANKS

Fuel pressure gauges are apparently difficult to install on this car. Dunno, thats just what the guys at Procharger say. Therefore, I didnt bother putting one on. Heres why. The fuel pressure is already monitored by the ECU (unlike older mustangs). That sensor is on the drivers side on the front of the fuel rail.
If you have an a/f gauge, a pressure gauge isn't really necessary....because.... if you see a lean reading from the a/f gauge, then all you have to do is hook up the tuner that came with the s/c you got, and check the pressure reading when it goes lean. If it's low (and what other reason would it be when boosting), time for more fuel.
For a two gauge dash pod, I love the one Saleen put in the new PJ Mustang. Seems to fit the style very nicely.
