Maxep Posted May 8, 2016 Posted May 8, 2016 The most important one is a boost gauge, if you're boosted. I personally have a boost gauge and an afr gauge to monitor my fueling. As for brands, I'd say AEM, but there are plenty more. Quote
akyakapotter Posted May 8, 2016 Posted May 8, 2016 I have boost oil temp oil pressure and water temp boost is by my controller and the others are Stri gauges Quote
ashep91 Posted May 8, 2016 Author Posted May 8, 2016 What's the difference between electrical and mechanical Quote
Bug679 Posted May 8, 2016 Posted May 8, 2016 (edited) Mechanical gauges are plumbed into the source of what your using the gauge for where electrical are just wired to it both are reliable as long as you get a good one don't have to be mad expensive just not chinese rubbishI use Greddy boost and oil pressure and AEM air fuel ya can get all the gauges you want on ebay or keep an eye out for second hand ones popping up on here Edited May 8, 2016 by Bug679 Quote
ashep91 Posted May 8, 2016 Author Posted May 8, 2016 I can't see any of the traders on here doing definitely gauges I seen some on eBay but I don't know if they are copies Quote

5e colin Posted May 8, 2016 Posted May 8, 2016 most important is afr > boost > egt innovate has my vote you can link them al together and see the graphs on the laptop to see what your doing afr vs .boost .vs rpm vs egt very handy !!! Quote
