I'm thinking of fitting one as a safety precaution just so I know how much boost the engine is getting (I think this is wise)

Can anyone recommend a cheap and easy gauge to fit and the best place to mount it (on my 98 UK Turbo)

Is there any other gauges worth fitting? I think Oil Temp & Pressure would be worthwile...

Oh and a knocklink for sure!

Matt.

Thumbs up





If this has worked, photo 1 shows the control unit mounted in a suitable place, photo 2 shows gauges (Defis) and control unit, and photo 3 shows where I put my Lambda Link....the Knock Link is sited at the other side of the wheel, at a similar height, just below the instruments.

Gauges/control unit/pod from Scoobymania in Nottingham, Link products from BRD.
