its not a hard job to put the guages in, but the factory setup in the typhoon has a temp sender in the sump, and that sump/sender is worth both your arms and 1½ legs.

yeah the official gauges etc are worth about $1300 from ford with the stuff to fit it
speak to Darren at FTG he has the housings there for cheap as ford will not sell them to you across the counter unless you own an FPV!

Congrats on the new purchase scott
Im looking at turbos at the moment and a couple beemers. Pretty keen on a new bf as they arent too much more expensive
