For those that run bigger turbos which gauges are recommended? I have boost, egt and afr gauge at the moment. If running a bigger turbo which guage is most recommended...I do plan on getting 3 more gauges to go along with the 42 draft design panel. Its either no more gauges or if I get more it has to be 3 to fill out the panel.

Gauges help a little IMO, but a data logging device doesn't clog up your car, make you look like a ricer, and is much more helpful.

Something to think about, also, is your AFR gauge a wideband? If it's not, it's worthless IMO.

I think its the LM-1 that has the capabilities. I just thought it would be nice to see if your oil pressure or oil temp is working properly and running the way it should

oil temp/oil press/boost/egt/water temp and then some sort of wideband O2 are going to cover every area you need to keep an eye on.

You dont sound like you should be upgrading your turbo with a thread like this.

Way to resurrect a 3 1/2 year thread motivator.



I have UEGO, boost, oil pres, and exh. temp.. But I don't like gauges. Honestly, I hardly ever monitor them. In the future, I'd like to eliminate the gauges and start data logging.
