Forced Induction Related Gauges

Hi,

Sorry I know this has been covered before but I cannot seem to find the topic..

what 3 gauges should I have for turbo?

I got the Boost gauge and A/F what else is there ?

Thanks

i would want oil pressure, turbo or not...

but you may want EGT, too...

 

[JDMPlaya]

hmm.. alright thanks

Oil pressure, Boost/vac, and EGT pyrometer. After doing some research, I wouldn't waste my time with the A/F gauge, the pyrometer is WAY better.

yup...i hear the a/f ratio gauge is useless too...plus most turbo timers have them built in anyway....i went with egt, boost, and oil pressure

a/f is a worthless lightshow. drop acid if you want to watch lights.
run egt, boost, and oil pressure if you want a turbo car

Where is the best place to run an oil pressure with or without a turbo (if it is different)?

 

[posol]

either off the pressure sender on the back of the block, or from the oil filter sandwhich adapter
