I am considering getting Either a Tropical gar or a spotted gar and i was wondering if it would be complatible with the fish in my signature????? All but the Silver Aro(my big oscar is an *** and kept picking on it) and the small Sailfin pleco are in a 100g tank and i would put the gar in that tank.

If your oscar is a bully then IMO the gar should be as long as the oscar. Most gars won't bother fish much more than 1/2 their size but there are always exception, esp. with narrow bodied fish.

Yeah, I'd be a little worried about something like the dojo becoming gar food... gars pretty quickly until they hit a certain point (about 12" in these species).
