As for what type of gauges/monitoring, how deep is your wallet? I went with a Defi boost gauge and Innovate wideband on the A pillar, so it was fairly economical. You can go nuts here. Dreamer's setup is awesome, but I can't imagine it being cheap to replicate.

And not to crap on anybody's buddy or something like that, but go with a kit that has had its kinks worked out. Whether that's BP or a local shop, don't be a guinea pig.

While a "custom" setup might be nice, one that has shown its ability and quality is a better option than be a test subject. BP has a very high quality kit and fantastic customer service, I believe there is a kit coming to Houston soon also.
