I'm wondering what would be the best gauges to spend my money on. I was thinking Air/Fuel and Oil Pressure for sure, but what else? Probably wont be getting a Turbo anytime soon so a boost gauge is out. Currently my car only has an intake and exhaust set-up for performance mods. Also anyone have a Gauge Pod they wanna sell me? PM me if so, Thanks!
 
the standard seems to be A/F, oil pressure and voltage ... may also concider oil temp and coolant temp ...

an air/fuel gauge is honestly pretty worthless imho. The light just bounces back and forth and makes a pretty lights display.

not if you get a Innovate Motorsports LC-1 wide band controller ... I have yet to install mine but you can configure the output to work with any narrow band A/F gauge.

why not just skip the narrow band AF gauge all together then? :shrug:

because I already have it and it a heck of alot cheaper then a LM-1 that has a gauge with it .. plus I don't like any of the wide band guages out there but I do like the autometer gauges that i have, personal preference thats all
 
My gauges of choice.

Boost
AEM Wideband
Pyrometer
Oil Pressure
Volts

Oh and to the original poster. I have an A/F gauge that I am selling. PM me!!!

I have a spare guage pod and a spare autometer oil pressure guage. So between my pod and our two guages, all you need is a Voltmeter or other guage of your choice! :)
