Safc 2 install/ gauges?

Hey guys. I just orded an SAFC 2. I'll have it on my NA for now. I'm SLOWING building up parts for my turbo, I'm pretty much just getting prepared with stuff before I actually get the thing in. I'm first doing SAFC, and then a new clutch.
First off, anyone know if SAFC's are hard to install on a 95? I'm guessing it won't be too hard.
Second, for tuning what should I buy? Obviously, you can't tune w/out knowing what the engines doing! Will an A/F gauge do fine? I know EGT's are better, but how do those work? Don't those also depend on ur timing, and not just how lean/rich you are? I'm mainly just gonna be playing w/my fuel curve, so the A/F gauge makes sense.
Third. Where do you get 2 and 5/8ths gauges?!??! ? I know those are what fit in the miata, and they have the same little breast like vents as us. I want to put my one (maybe two gauges) in the vents. Any ideas there? Thanx guys!

S-AFC is easy to hook up on the '92, not sure of the '95. Just get a wiring diagram, look at the online manual. As for tuning, get the EGT gauge, costs 3 times as much but is way more useful. If you do the blue wire mod with the S-AFC, you will be able to see the O2 voltage. This is exactly what the A/F gauge displays, just in pretty lights. You are looking for a voltage of around .7 for starters. You can use the exhaust note to help tune the S-AFC. The EGT should be 1000'F cruising speeds and 1400'F under full throttle (or there abouts). Autometer makes the gauges you are looking for.

if you go to the online manual on the mx-3.com main page, it'll have the wiring diagrams for the wires you need to hook up if you have a dohc. too bad for us sohc owners because there wasn't a diagram for sohc motors.
