SN95 refers to the last(?) generation of Fox Mustangs.

I'm in the process of slowly putting the interior and trunk back together.  After the new dash pad is installed, I'll post some more pics.

I used a Autometer 3-gauge pod pillar (http://"http://store.summitracing.com/partdetail.asp?part=ATM-12121") for an SN95 Mustang from Summit Racing. If you look at the page in this linked thread (http://"http://www.foxtbirdcougarforums.com/showthread.php?t=15138&page=5&highlight=pillar"), you'll see how I modified the gauge pod so it would fit nicely over the existing A-pillar.

Here's a more recent picture - it has the gauges you mentioned - Fuel Pressure, Boost and Air/Fuel (the little notebook on the right has many more electronic gauges :) ):

The notebook is a Fujitsu U810. It has a 5.6" touch screen. They now have a U820 (http://"http://store.shopfujitsu.com/fpc/Ecommerce/buildseriesbean.do?series=U820") that is faster and has an improved keyboard & GPS built in.

I'm using a TwEECer (http://"http://www.tweecer.com/") to tune my engine combined with the Binary Editor/EEC buttstuffyzer (http://"http://eecbuttstuffyzer.net/") software. The software that comes with the TwEECer also has digital and buttstuffog dashboards, but I like the one that Binary Editor has - it looks nicer IMO.
