robert_gray Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 Not sure if this should be in the technical thread but here goes anyway........... I have a 1996 auto turbo import soop and nearly at the stage to upgrade to BPU. I Know that i need a boost gauge and i was wondering what other gauges you would recommend? There are so many gauges that you can have and i dont want the interior to be a clutter of gauges that i'll never really need. Was just wanting to know what the main areas are that i would need to monitor with the upgrades that goes with a Bpu Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terribleturner Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 You'll probably find LOADS of threads about this and everyones own personal choice. I love my oil temp so i knoww when the engine is ready for booting. I also quite fancy an oil pressure gauge as a hint to when i may see problems. EGT was good to for the same reason.

Nic Posted October 27, 2006 Share Posted October 27, 2006 Boost Gauge and either a Wideband AFR gauge - gives accurate view of fueling, they are a little expensive. or Exhaust Gas Temp Gauge - give a rough guide to whether things are running okay, cheaper than the above. If you want to monitor a number of readings without having loads of gauges, have a look at the Defi Link display. http://www.nippon-seiki.co.jp/defishop/product/dp/dp_top.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
