Gauges
Hello guys
I just wondered who's got what gauge? and how many gauges do you have?
As i just bought myself a new car and its gaugeless so i wondered what most people have!

Centre pod: Defi oil temperature, boost and oil pressure. 60mm
A-Pillar pod: Defi fuel pressure and coolant temperature. 52mm
The fuel pressure gauge is linked to the boost gauge to read differential pressure, ie: the difference between boost and fuel pressure.

Not really into loads of gauges and have a techtom fitted in dash so can check everything on that and it's more discreet.Gauges on piston heads now.

My defis have each got a sender wire which go to a central control unit. Then from the control unit, there is ONE wire that daisy-chains to each gauge.
The control unit needs four feed wires to function. The control box is where the cupholder ought to be, but there wasn't one on my 98 car, just a cover, cheap Jap thieves!
Took me a day to witre up and no, none of the dash came out except for the central top cubby-hole lid.
