Bascaily the title says it. What gauges would you concider getting. I want some on the side for bling and to check my boost levels if its to low or to high but what gauges would you consider? mostly i see are about 3 on the side pannels but witch ones to get? boost?pressure etc.?

 

Well first a boost gauge is nice. I have a Defi BF Gauge setup. There great and I love them. If you plan on running methanol, then a wideband gauge or Air Fuel Ratio gauge is a must. Those are the two most important gauges

 

im planning to stay a lil stock for now because im going to school and dont have much money to mod up but defi gauges are nice i like them but how much are they? boost and anything else?

 

The only gauge that you really need if you don't plan on doing any modding (yeah right) is the boost gauge. If you plan on modding your car (more than likely) then you will need a wideband gauge (especially for accurate logging to send to a tuner). It is not a necessity to have a wideband gauge for logging but like I said it will give you the most accurate tune. You can also look at getting an oil pressure and EGT gauge to round you out.

 

I got Prosport Boost, EGT and AEM Wideband.

 

just get a cheap $20 mechanical boost gauge. they are accurate and work great. No bling to them though.

 

o ty ppl for replying and right now my cousin with a 06 se just drove my car and he feels the motor is about to fall apart. He says the old owner didnt take care of it and beated on it real bad. alot of stuff wrong i had a headache from it yesterday. >.< but if i can get a full refund on this i will then get the gauges but if i cant i might as well fix it up.

 

just get some autometer ultralite mechanical gauges. boost, oil pressure. and than an oil temp. best for now

 

I have a Defi boost gauge. It is bling but not accurate. Reads 2-4psi too high.

 

honestly if you realy dont care about what anyone says about wat kind of name brand parts you get then just get something cheaper they all work the same pending you install it right who knows maybe u can start a trend haha

 

If you want bling put a hot chick in minimum clothing

 

LOL this is off topic sry but when i was a kid (even tho i still am ) i wanted a naked paint on my car before lol. but yeh iuno wut gauges i want but i want the one that got bblack tint when its off and lightsu p blue when its on.

 

Well as you can see i got the ones in my sig and soon getting a meth dds3 gauge. But the first ones i got was the boost, afr, egt and fuel press. those in my opinion are the first ones to start with especially when you start to tune your car and add mods. then the oil temp and pres are nice to know too..........

 

I would do 3 defi's bf series BOOST,OIL PRESSURE, EGT, CONTROL UNIT thats all you need and then get a AEM Wideband

 

all u need is electric boost gauge(more accurate then mechanical), wideband. oil press and egt optional. dont buy any gauges just for bling. search around for gauges that are acurate as well.
