Thanks for all the help. Does anyone have any suggestions on what gauges are definitely necessary. I was thinking about going with a defi boost gauge, aem uego wideband, and safc 2. Some have stated that I also need a oil pressure gauge. Someone else stated that I don't need the oil gauge but should have an egt gauge. Thanks again for any help.

The main one you should have is a boost gauge to make sur ethe belts not slipping and you can hit full boost. An AEM wideband is a good idea also to make sure your not running lean. Oil pressure isnt nessacary, neither is egt on a s/c car. I think you mean VAFC2, which will help tune the car a bit, but isnt the best tool out there to use, also not nessacary if your running under 7 psi.

Oh, I used to work there. Deana Henry and Joe Wilcox.

I got my s/c there. The installer will be John, he's done all the work on my car so far. Hes about to upgrade my ecu in a month. Hes real good, hes a friend of mine, worked on S/C NSX and has a turbo RSX.

Tell them you know me and maybe theyll cut you a deal on the install.

Thanks revhi!

Would you recommend I have them put a boost gauge on? Is there a gauge you would recommend?

Mike

Hey Mike, Im running the Nordskog gauge as seen in my avatar. You dont really need one, but its nice to have and it will tell you if your belts slipping. If you got the money I hear the Defi Gauges are the best ones, John (Yeloscreamer) has them.

My name is Jackson by the way.
