So my car is already S/Ced, about to put gears in this weekend, then stage 2 blower cams are going in next week. The mech thats putting the cams in said it would be stupid to even drive the car without an air/fuel gauge. So other then the air/fuel gauge what are the next 2 most important gauges to have in a car with my set up? Oil press? Fuel press? Boost?

 

Fuel pressure and boost (both can tell different stories of how the motor is running). After that oil pressure, water temp, EGT, and volts.

 

I would go with these 3,
Boost
wide band air fuel
and fuel pressure

 

wide band is all you realy need.

 

So really if I went with the livewire SCT it was would be enough info to make sure my car isn't going to blow up?

 

Im old school and dont like all those electronic air/fuel stuff. Just need to know my boost, amount of fuel, and heat so that I can stop from detonation.

 

What if your O2 sensor fails? Fuel pressure, oil temp, water temp, and boost/vacuum are all necessary to run a blower. You need to know all these to prevent a catastrophic failure in your investment. I know these are redundant as hell but I think they are necessary

 

but thats 5 gauges if you add the air/fuel. So instead of my asking what gauges to get how about you all tell me which gauges you have. Make sure to note if they are mech or elec.

 

^^^^OK Boost -mech, fuel pressure-electric, and wideband digital A/F..... I have yet to install but plan on getting water temp, oil pressure, and volts!

 

wideband/boost/aeroforce scangauge.

the aeroforce can give you about 20 different gauges in one by plugging into the obd port and reading what the computer is reading. you could do a double or tripple set up also on the scangauge.
