I guess if you already have the scangauge, you can either stick with it or sell it used to get the C&C (I am sure you could find a buyer here). You might benefit from finding an Insight driver around you that has it and seeing firsthand what it can do.

The grid charger is pretty easy. I built my own. Just type dumb grid charger into the search engine on Insightcentral and you will get easy to find results. A rough explanation is that you wire a couple of 90 volt LED power sources in series with the proper diodes so the current flows in one direction. Pretty easy, and my wiring experience is limited to car stereo installs.

60 PSI is what I use without problem, although I might be careful with blown shocks. I could easily be wrong, but my gut tells me the front tires are a bit more important than rear anyway.
