Well, I haven't driven my car for a while, because it needed a few things. . .
Oil Change, Leaking Rad. Hose. . .
Buttt, I decided to add an oil temp gauge when I changed the oil, and needed to pull the Downpipe, Dumptube, Oil pan etc...to do so.

So here the car sits for a lil while:


Instead of getting paid to install headers in my friends mustang, I convinced him to give me this:



So now, my collection of Gauges looks a lil sumnthin like this:


Now, all I need is an EGT gauge mounted right next to the new oil temp, and I'm set. The gauges will then include:
-Oil Pressure
-Boost/Vac
-Air fuel (not needed at all)
-Oil Temp
-EGT
Most of them are necessary for my Turbo motor

Well my car is so beat right now, dings all over the doors, holes from where the wing was ripped off, someone backed into my front bumper, soo yea, my friends dad is spraying the entire car fresh milano red in spring. I just need to come up with the $$$. . .

BTW, I got my custom plates today too. . .

 

toss the air/fuel and replace it with a egt. then you wont need to put another on the dash

How so? Tell me which ones aren't necessary? (Not including A/F)

Boost --Need to see if boost suddenly spikes, or is not reaching full boost at all

Oil Press-Need to constantly monitor in case of oil pump failure, engine should be shut down right away

Oil Temp- Need to know when oil reaches full operating temp, so I can beat on it, andd if the oil temp is getting too hot, then I need to change oils, or figure out the problem.

I don't have a wideband, so the EGT is kinda needed too. JIC of injector failure or something, it may be the difference between a semi blown motor, or melting the entire thing and throwing rods. . .

 

tight

I agree. I have an A/F guage and it does **** all. Even with a wideband it's inaccurate. It looks *blingy* though so I guess all is not lost.
