The good things in life usually are expensive but isn’t you baby worth it. Besides when you’re talking about your engine management you defiantly don’t want to be cheap. I would not worry about it if I was you. Dude when you’re done she is going to be a beast.

aem comes out to more but value wise is better to go with the aem f/ic.. but not to many people are fluent with tunning it and a lot are having trouble with it.

Do you think i should actually start installing gauges now ? and run it with N/A just to actually prepare and connect everything.

you could hook up a boost gauge to a vac line and it will bounce around, but the afr wouldnt work.. you could also hook up an egt or oil pressure gauge. its up to you!
