Question

I have an MY01 with PPP and full decat including up-pipe.What gauges should I invest in to monitor for possible engine damaging problems? The PSI3 system looks good,does this work OK with PPP fitted and cover all I need to know?

The boost readout will be wrong.

Knocklink and boost gauge would be my recommendation.

I've got a MY01 PPP with full decat and just had Defis fitted (boost, oil temp and oil pressure).

You also need full vibration condition monitoring equipment, including thermocouples, accelerometers, tranducers etc.

Only joking.

Boost guage and knocklink are worth a look. An AFR is pretty useful too.
