Default Useless A/F gauge and somewhat useful oil pressure gauge

Hey all some people have asked me for a picture of my gauges at night, and well this is what I got for now. It's a brief video of me starting my car when it is dusk out. Not quite day, not quite night but you can see all the gauges pretty well. It's a minute of me idling the car and panning around. Sorry for the conservative revs, my neighbor directly next door has two young kids that go to bed early and I was tryin to be polite.

now the guy i got the car from has the light behind the oil pressure gauge set to come on with ignition on.... i may rewire it into one of the dash lights if possible to get it only on when my head lights are on and maybe get it to dim... we'll see

pretty light show. my a/f gauge is pretty useless. i want a wideband one maybe thatll make a difference. gauges look awesome, and your exhaust sounds pretty damn nasty. i got my gauge lightswired into the headlight switch, so my a/f one only lights up when the headlights are on, if i get a wideband a/f gauge ill wire it to the ignition most likely.

mustang_montanta~ thanks man. I mean it's not a drag car but I think it's pretty cool as is. And about the exhaust... it's just flowmaster 40s welded in (again came with the car). I'm hoping to liven it up a bit in the future with a catted X pipe


LVGordo~ I have no idea... the EGT gauge is more or less when you are running nitrous or boost and have to watch for drastic temperature changes
