I think the Cobb Accessport is the best way to get gauges, a shift light, data logging and ECU tuning all in one shot.

The fast and furious look is very 2001.
what is the cobb accessport? i just mean a clean install, subtle, not flashy gauges up the side lol

I want to install a few things however what is holding me back are wiring diagrams.
The shop manual will not be available until December.

I need the ECU pin outs as well as the Sony head unit.
If anyone has access to these, any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

To be honest, every turbo/supercharged car should have a boost gauge. Especially one with 21psi.

That sounds cool but are you really going to look at your gauge when you are at full boost? Do you need a gauge to tell you that you lost boost if suddenly you have none?

It would have been nice but my butt tells me what I need to know even when I have my eyes on the road.
just thought it would be nice to have a clean gauge set up somewhere on the dash
For those of you who want a boost gauge, the Ultragauge is supposed to support this.

For those of you who have an old Ultragauge that you wish to use in the ST, don't !!!
I found out the hard way that the old version will prevent the newer model Ford's computer from sleeping when the key is off. This will cause the battery to be drained overnight. I got up this morning to find my battery down to 4.5 Volts.
I've been shopping around for a boost gauge as the Accessport is a bit small and I prefer "analog" displays. I found this but I don't know much about it or how to wire it.
