Gauge Question

Got my programmer and my straight pipes and now i'm researching gauges.. I dont wanna do the Gauge Pillar deal but would rather have a 2 in 1 gauge with Exhaust and boost. The X Monitor is way cool for sure and I have found several others I like,, But they are all 3 or 400 bucks,,,, Seems outrageous to me, or am i just behind with the times? A Single gauge would be best for me and i really like the x monitor,, Just 400 sumtin dollars is way more than my budget will allow, ya'll have any suggestions?

Westach.com has boost/EGT guage combos (analog) in 3" cases.
They also have a 3" combo guage that has boost, trans temp, and TWO EGT scales. (Why argue about pre and post turbo when you could do both!!)

i like the 2" dual gauge for sure,, 175.00 is a lot better than 400 bucks too,, Appreciate the help guys.. Still stuck on the x monitor though,, its just way cool,, and you gots to like being cool, But cool can be very expensive..!! I have the ESOF switch on the dash so i cant mount there,,,Figured i would decide ont he gauge first and then in location for the install.. Am I Bass ackwards?

I've had the x monitor installed for 2 years now and still love it. The digital readout and max values make it worth the money. I paid 380 for at the time.
