Default guage questions...

alright..i bought a group of used..well new in box...guages and need some info on installs...
i have a boost, fuel pressure, exhaust temp, and air/fuel guage and a tripple pod. so i can only install 3 of them. im thinking: boost, fuel press. and exh temp..and sellin back the air/fuel. how can i install the exhaust temp guage? i think it said i have to install it like 6" from the hottest port..which means i would have to drill into my shorty headers. something i really dont wanna do. what other options do i have? and im pretty sure i have the links for the boost and fuel pressure install..but if anyone has them handy..thatd be great. oh, and for the pod install...do i drill into the existing A-pillar? how does that go?
any advice/tips appreciated

as far as mounting gauges i could give you a hand. what sort of pod do you have, is if a full a pillar or the kind that attaches to the a pillar. Click my sig to look at mine.

I wouldn't install the air/fuel gauge if I were you unless you just wanted some pretty lights. As far as the installation of the gauges if they are autometer you can get an online copy here.

yeah its a screw on kind, you'll have to drill 1/4 inch holes in the existing a pillar and the black things snap into those holes, I also drilled a 3/4 inch hole behind the pod for the wires to go through and behind the A-pillar. Hit me up on LATS or on my website and i can meet w you and show you how i ran everything if you want.
