Im interested in getting an oil pressure and boost guage, what are your brand reccomendations? i dont need gauges with memory, i just want a reliable readout and a simple look thanks

autometer, Greddy, the defi just came out i think with gauges that dont need the control unit.

 

The memory function is important. IMHO You should reconsider.

When running all out and shifting at 9000 rpm you don't have time to look at the boost gauge so the memory is very helpful.

 

You should definately have a logging function as well as warning.

AEM Serial Gauge - Can show you water temperature and MAP sensor reading (boost) from the get go.

Fuel/Oil Pressure sensor kit can be added on later on

 

but why would you want to know afterwards? is it so you know not to punch as hard or still able to punch it harder?

another stupid question,

the boost gauge shown goes up to 2.5, but i thought that a CT or VT setup gets you from 5-7lbs?

I just bought a regular autometer boost guage, and a AEM wideband guage.

 

I'll give you a perfect example of why you want that memory function:

My clutch is starting to slip. Last night, hard shift, cluth slips, rpm's skyrocket .. boom .. boost and engine cut ... what the hell just happened in the last .5 seconds? Looks like about 5psi overboost. Luckily no damage done that I can tell, but sure is nice knowing exactly what happened.

 

for the aem 16 in one what does it look like installed, i would love to limit the number or gauges in the car but i want to still want a quality setup.

its like a handheld device.
