hey guys im looking at buying 3 gauges, i already have 2 in mind, aem tru boost, and the aem wideband, i just need a 3rd gauge i want to try to keep it aem and digital but which one oil pressure or oil temp?

 

Oil pressure is more vital.

 

oil pressure

 

oil pressure. if it drops, something aint right.

 

ok so oil pressure it is, i assume the AEM oil press gauge comes with a electronic sending unit, is there a oil passage plug that i remove and stick the sending unit in? if so anyone have any idea where that little booger is at?

 

So turbo car isnt egt a.needed gauge?

 

FWIW you only need a warning light for when oil pressure suddenly drops, you don't need a fancy gauge for that.

I would suggest oil temp or EGT since both of those are much more gradual.

 

you remove the 3/8" plug from the oil filter housing and plug it in there. Youll probably need a torch to loosen up the loctite to get it out.

 

I've always been a fan of a coolant temp gauge as well. Much more accurate than stock gauges in the cluster. In my last car I ran wideband, boost, oil pressure & coolant temp.

I like having the EGT gauge. Boost, EGT and wideband is what I run. Oil pressure is good to have BUT... gauges that have memory recall and warning lights is the hot ticket because the thing is... when your at 7 grand breakin the law..and the adrenaline is pumpin'.. you ain't got time to LOOK at your gauges.. LOL when something goes wrong... I want lights to start flashing and warning buzzers to start sounding..lol

 

Is there a company out there that makes a dual function setup? For example, I know a company for Audi that makes a dual digital display on the same 52mm gauge. So you could have oil pressure and EFT on the same gauge
