Re: boost gauge and pods
It's all the same. However there are no readily available aftermarket pillar pods. You're going to have to get crafty with an OE pod and some fiberglass.

Re: boost gauge and pods
First of all, Turbo and Supercharger boost gauges work the same. I have an aftermarket gauge, but only because I"m boosting well beyond the range of the factory gauge.
Putting one on a stock supercharger/car is pure lunacy. Why on earth would you want two gauges to tell you the same thing?
Aside from that, if you wanted to waste your money on something that would do nothing for you, the answer you seek is in Techinfo, I wrote the article to add a boost gauge to my OTHER supercharged car that didn't come with a factory gauge.
