Could anyone tell me what the best gauges to have please, I have a twin pillar pod, One hole has a boost gauge the other is empty at the moment. Which would be a good hole filler (so to speak)
The most useful please.

 

I'd say oil temp.

Guy

 

Cheers Guy, will see you at next Well Lane if your going.
Should have Dawes Device on by then
May even put it on rolling road if theres spaces available.

 

I should be there Steve. If you're going to fit a Dawes then you should think about a AFM. I think you can get one that would fit in your gauge pod. Either that or get one like the Dawes AFM which is a series of LED.

Any idea who supplies one to fit in a pod? as I was gonna fit one Like yours but have them reflecting off the windscreen.

 

MJ Design sell Autometer gauges. http://www.mjdesignsuk.com/ They do an AF gauge http://www.mjdesignsuk.com/lunar.html

I'm not sure how well it suits a scoob though.

If it was me I'd put an oil temp gauge in your pod and go for the Dawes LED AFM.

 

Cheers Guy, will have a look at the link now.

Have you got an "A Pillar Pod"? where did you get it from and is it for a MY00?

Thanks

 

You could get an Air / Fuel from JW Racing made by Dawes. Can be HUD. The A-Pillar could take up a twin guage with oil pressure and temperature. SPA do some really neat stuff with lots of features. Let me know if you want more info.

 

Got to agree with Harvey on this one.

Keep the boost gauge where it is and add a SPA oil pressure / temp gauge. They do all sorts of trick things, you can set levels for warning lights and change the units of measurement etc.

I would strongly recommend an AFR ~ the Dawes seems to be about the best and most discrete, and probably the cheapest ~ as you really only want to be able to see what the gauge is doing out of the corner of your eye in case you get any red / yellow lights.

The AFR is not a gauge that you would usually study in detail or watch all the time, so it can be tucked away (maybe in the air vent as its only about the same size as a 50p) and will only come into play to warn of impending doom.

Hope this helps,

Got A pillar pod from Nomad Racing, do single, twin, triple in grey or black and mine is a MY00. Cheapest place as well, as they manufacture for allmost everyone else. Very helpfull too.
