Default PLX dm-100 users chime in

for those of you using the plx multi gauge, what all do i need to be able to see boost, intake temp, A/F ratio, and oil pressure at one time on this one gauge? each seperate module for the things i want to see? wideband o2 sensor? any info on how you guys are running your would be great.

well IMO the best way is 2 gauges. put boost/vac on a dm-6 gauge and the rest using a 4 parameter display on the dm-100 gauge. u can only see 4 at a time on the dm100.... boost/vac/af/oil pressure/iat=5

no need for that.

I have the dm-200 in the setting you can set as default to see 4 item in the LCD ( my case: boost, oil press ) i will get A/f soon, make sure you set you letters color to White, so you can see them during the day.

i realize that. the OP listed 5 parameters though. all you really need is a/f, boost and oil pressure.

i figured i would just use the dm-100 to see boost, iat, a/f, oil pressure for the 4 parameter view and figure out how to mount it flush above the start button
