not a brand, just what are you monitoring, EGT, AIT oil temp, oil pressure etc.

i've only got boost and oil pressure, plus a wideband display, i am thinking of adding AIT, EGT, water temp, oil temp

 

i got greddy a/f, egt, and boost......thinkin of getting one more

 

autometer boost and egt

gonna get a oil pressure ASAP

 

boost, EGT, A/F, air intake temp, knock, fuel pressure and thats all folks

 

Turbo,oil,exaust temp,,water,air fuel,N20.....I love watching my motor work.
Also have Intake temp does anyone know how to hook up a mechanical one?

 

my plans are for: boost, oil press, fuel pressure in pillar pod and then oil temp, EGT in the center console

 

Defi Link

Boost
Oil Pres
Fuel Pres
EGT

 

WHats EGT ??

 

egt- exhaust gas temp

i plan on boost, oil pressure, egt, and afr (wb) for the essentials. amperage and water temp i already got for cheap.

 

I have water temp, oil temp, boost, air/fuel.

 

boost and EGT

 

boost, egt, oil pressure, wideband O2 display

 

Autometer ultralites- Tach, boost pressure, oil and water temps, FJO display.

All electronic except for the boost pressure.

 

Boost, EGT, ECT, EOP, Fuel Pressure, WideBand display, and Volts
(a mixture of Greddy, TechEdge, and Blitz)

 

whats ect and eop?

wouldnt you guys rather have oil pressure than oil temp? if you spring a leak your oil pressure immediately drops. your temp may not change much.. at least not until youre bone dry heh. both is good too, but id rather not have extra clutter. at least with water temps you know its supposed to be around 185F, and thats pretty much what every car uses.

 

ive got an apexi avcr....i've had problems with autometer in the pass with inaccuaret boost readings...decided to fork out the extra $$$ for an electronic monitor.

yeah, my AEM EMS is a boost controller, i am not about to spend $400 just to monitor boost

 

autometer boost and egt, i wouldnt put the probe in the mani again tho cause it runs out of scale on the gauge, pretty much any gauges are ok, once your tuned you get a bench mark from the gauges you got, theres no gauge like a wideband

 

defi link boost, techedage 02 display at the moment. I have a egt but not install

 

I've got rid of most of mine. I have wideband and J&S monitor left. I have the AVC-R if I want to check to make sure boost is going where I want it, but it's in the glovebox.

The police are really tight around here, so I got rid of my a-pillar pod and my Defi HUD gauge.

ECT = engine coolant temp
EOP = engine oil pressure
EOT = engine oil temp

If you spend too much time diagnosing engines and you will find yourself using more and more shortcut terms for sensors. Sorry for the confusion.

 

honostly i never look at any of them. i could probably survive w/ none....

it's when you have none and something goes wrong when you say "damn, i shoulda had a guage for that"

 

Too many gauges is just a nuisance. Your not watching them. The likelyhood of catching something like an oil pressure drop before it's a real problem is low.

A single warning light with warning switches is a better alternative for a daily driver.

 

i'm gonna run it in SoloI on the road track, lots of guages will be a good idea
