autometer air/fuel ratio gauge

i should hopefully be getting my 2.4 turboed when the hahn kit comes out and i would like to have a boost gauge, a air/fuel gauge and a oil pressure gauge. what i want to know is will this gauge work in our cars? what would we need to make it work? i know in the celica they wouldnt work right unless you had some kind of special equipment and im wondering if this holds true for the 2.4 as well. thanks.

I'm not sure why it wouldn't as you're pulling the readings from the 02 sensor that comes with the gauge, type of vehicle it is shouldn't matter. You should be fine...If not you could always go with an EGT guage.

Put it in that compartment where the trunk release switch it. Kinda hard to look at though or buy one of those universal pod cups from autometer and mount it on your dash. What's the pillar pod you're planning on getting?

Air/Fuel ratio wise, as long as you get a wideband and not a narrowband, you'll be fine and get a proper reading.

Any other gauge, they should work properly as long as you install them properly and correctly.
