Fuel pressure is probly more important than oil pressure with a FI motor.

I would do boost, a/f ratio, fuel pressure, and oil pressure.

If you want a 5th gauge, get egt.

  1. Tire pressure
  2. Gas - full/empty
  3. Speedometer
OR if you added power
  1. WB
  2. Knock indicator
Thats it

for overall engine health, boost, oil pressure, a/f.

for tuning/troubleshooting, boost, fuel pressure, a/f, and egt. Not sure you can limit it to just 3.

I can monitor fuel pressure with my defi HUD. Ive always wondered, why is this useful? Basically why would fuel pressure drop or raise too high?

Fuel pumps do fail. There's plenty of stories of Walbro's failing on EvoM.

I went through two of them in as many months.
