are you running or planning on running any power adders?

Water Temp and Oil Pressure

Or if going to be running a blower or turbo, a boost gauge and oil pressure.

And the A/F ratio needs to be a wideband gauge set up for it to work properly

i kno i'll need a boost guage eventually cus i do plan on gettin a kenne bell s/c in a few years, but for now i just have a midpipe and catback and intake, and i guess since my car for the most part is stock the guages would b kinda for looks but i want them to serve a purpose as well. so would air fuel ratio, oil pressure, and water temp be the best choices?

is the air fuel ratio, water temp, and oil pressure guages simple to install? which one is the most difficult?

the a/f would be the most difficult if it's a wideband set up.

RedStangGT · August 14th, 2007, 03:04 PM
