Hi .I'm making some research and I want to know what are the most important gauges you can mount in your car since I decide to add this gauge pod that comes painted:

just for know I have the Boost gauge,what did you think are the other most important ????????????????

 

Oil pressure, Oil temperature, Exhaust Gas Temperature

 

answers will vary

and it depends on the mods that are done to your car.

me personally i would get boost, egt, and oil pressure

people that track a lot prefer oil temp over oil pressure

other people prefer fuel pressure over the oil ones.


i prefer oil pressure because i have done a lot of off roading in the past and i want to know right away if i crack something or am starting to lose pressure on a steep incline. (it has happened to me before). better to stop and get towed and fix your oil pan or whatnot then to drive unknowingly with no oil and then blow the motor and get towed and replcae the engine.

 

egt,oil pressure,oil temp, maybe a better water temp(stock is kinda weak, a few degrees can make a difference), ic temp(if your a racer), radar detector(if your a racer)... is a radar detector a gague? Yeah why not.

 

so Boost #1 and EGT 2nd as I see
...? what is EGT what the use for
what the importance of oil temperature

 

EGT is Exhaust Gas Temperature. Its useful to see if you are running lean or rich. A lot of people consider it more accurate then A/F for this use.

 

good., but i think that need some work to connect it i saw a pic and have a big wire.
where is connected?

 

you have to tap the exhaust manifold...
