Look into the innovate SCG-1, its an all in 1 unit that does both and has safely features built in as well as data logging. I run this and its been working great!

But isn't it like a boost controller too? I need this because I'm putting a Whipple on my car .my original thought was a 3 gauge pillar with a wide band, boost gauge, and fuel pressure .

Yes,it is. Didn't know you were Whippin it.

Those 3 are the most important I'd say. 3 guage right in the pillar would be perfect.
