Boost, Knock and AFR is minimum, EGT also nice to have. IMHO.

Hi,

You can get Knock and Lambda links from Jap Innovations for about £80 each

I've just ordered an electronic EGT from HKS - about £240 but if you look on TDi's website they call it the most important gauge you'll ever buy or something like that.

Cheers
Rich
