    Anybody have any guages from PLX Devices?

    meh... I agree with the square plug in the round hole... if I wanted multi function gauges I'd get the ones from MSD http://www.msdignition.com/2006/06-1.htm Not to mention those gauges might not react fast enough, might not be very easy to see during the day, and/or blind you at night...
