I am going to buy a two gauge pillar pod, and I need two gauges. One will definately be boost, but what other gauge should I get considering my mods and a future Dynoflash? Thanks guys!!!

 

oil pressure maybe or air to fuel ratio or fuel pressure

 

Pyrometer for sure. You can get a lot of info from EGTs

 

def. oil pressure....

 

Egt

 

EGT, unless you want to go with a wideband 02 like AEM's . . . but then you'll be frying sensors even more than you would be with an EGT

 

Has to be EGT in my opinion as well.....then comes oil pressure and then fuel pressure.

 

Egt

 

I know I'm dumb but what exactly is an EGT and what will it do for me?...

 

Egt

 

EGT = Exhaust Gas Temperature

It will give you signs of being too rich, or lean, as well as detonation. My choice would be boost, egt, fuel pressure, then oil pressure (in that order).

If you need a more lengthy explanation of EGT please feel free to PM me.

 

Exhaust gas temp gauge. Normally, the leaner you run the car, the hotter the exhaust gas will be. Too hot, and you start melting stuff. The only thing I think it is good for is watching for knock. As the car knocks and timing is retarded, the EGTs will go up. If you have the ability to log and watch knock, you're wasting time with an EGT gauge. On a custom tune for a specific boost level and octane gas, I would be inclined to go with oil pressure first. That is assuming that the car was tuned to not knock at your boost and octane level.

 

jab, always comes thru!!!

thanks guys! anymore?

 

What about Fuel Level? Blinker Fluid Temp? Windshield Washer Fluid Pressure?

 

Is this a serious poll? EGT all the way!
