What are the best gauges to get?

[Murphy115]

What are the top 3 gauges I should get for my msp? Besides a boost gauge what other 2 would be the most beneficial?

 

[Blake D]

wide-band A/f gauge. you need one for any tuning at all.

 

[808MP5]

oil pressure

Would mechanical gauges work fine?

 

[CHIQLES]

a/f-boost-oil pressure

Boost and Wideband at the minimum I would recommend personally. I have a Defi Mechanical boost gauge and AEM electronic wideband, both work great.

 

[njaremka]

boost
wide-band
oil pressure
oil temperature
water temperature

if you can get all 5, get them. if not, that's the order of precedence stay away from mechanical gauges, except for boost. when running a mechanical oil gauge, if you get a leak, it makes a HUGE mess.

Why does no one run an egt gauge?

 

[Murphy115]

I'm going to get a triple pod pillar and probably get mechanical boost and electrical a/f and oil pressure.

 

[mazdaspeedp]

boost,afr,oil pressure,oil temp,fuel pressure

 

[Murphy115]

Would you need to get the wideband or would just an air fuel be sufficient enough? The widebands are all around $200+

Narrow bands are light shows and good for nothing. Get a wide band or don't get one at all but it is the most important gauge on any turbo car
