Since the pillar has holes that dont work with the factory plastic clips in the rectangular holes, how did anyone else go about drilling the holes since they seem to line up in very weird places on the car's pillar. I was thinking right angle drill, but still dont know how to drill into a piece of like 1/4" thick steel on an angle.

Have you looked at using double sided tape? Just an easier option.

You can also use some of the industrial strenght velcro. It lasted for 4 years in my other car.

I didnt even consider that. Thanks guys! Should I even bother hooking up the A/F Guage or should I sell it and buy a knock guage or trans temp guage? (I bought the boost+a/f in a package with the double pillar for 54$ on ebay and theyre both AutoMeter ProComp UltraLites )

Go for the aeroforce and have nearly any gauge you want. As long as you believe what the PCM is telling you.
