Gauges needed for a turbo upgrade...

So I want to upgrade to the FP Green, I was wondering what gauges I needed for such an upgrade. Obviously I would need the boost and the wideband, but with the MR, would I need anything else?

Boost, Wideband A/F, and EGT at the least I would say. That's everything that goes with the Zietronix ZT-2.

Anything beyond those 3 would just be personal preference really. Maybe some others will have some input.

FWIW I've seen some prosport guages recently that looked pretty good if you want to go on a budget.

I'd say oil pressure instead of EGT if you are going to be running a wideband afr anyway because they both tell you practically the same thing. Go with a dependable wideband and gauges in general not cheapy ones, when you're monitoring important engine data the last thing you want is your gauge to be off with whatever its reading.

I was just going to comment,that I thought the wideband and the egt measure the same. I was going to go AEM all the way. I will consider oil pressure, I was also thinking trans temp as well, especially with the MR trans
