I have a boost, Temp and Volt gauge but what is the next best couple of gauges to get ?

 

I personally think volt gauges are a waste of time, or there just to make the space.
I would say a must for turbocharger motors are: boost, Oil temp and oil pressure.
you didn't say what temp one you had. Oil, water, intake etc.

 

Spa gauges are good plus you get 2 readouts per gauge.

The temp gauge i have i think just reads the engine temp like the dial on the dash.
Are fuel/air gauges worthwile ?

 

myblack - them gauges are expensive mate or is it just me being tight
Do most garages fit all the gauges or is this a specilist job ?

 

l have a prosport AFR gauge with built in volt gauge, good if you dont mind flashing lights.

 

No you're not tight, they're expensive...

 

I have the SPA dual gauges and the most useful one in my book is the Air Charge Temp one taking a temp reading at the throttle body.

That, along with the oil pressure/oil temp gauges are essential. Boost gauge is for bling. Voltage guage is completely meaningless.

 

If you want cheaper gauges try Automotive Dials Gauges pods t-piece i have seen these in action and they do look extremely nice.

if you think the DUAL reading gauges are expensive have a look at these blitz ones
Blitz UK: Products > Electronics > MD Gauges which are SINGLE reading gauges.

 

The SPA gauges initially look expensive but remember that they are 2 gauges in one so you are getting twice the value, half the wiring problems, and using half the space.

 

Thanks all, what do you think about this item on fleabay then : 270122290450 worth it or to cheap and could become faulty etc. quickly ?

 

They look similar to the prosport gauges a lot of us use, they do the job well at a cheap price. Prosport ship to the UK.
