Default What gauge ranges?

I am going down a different route for gauges in my gauges in my Impreza.

Just after some help finding what range of gauges people use for the following:

- Boost gauge: I was looking at 0-2.5bar

- Oil pressure gauge: I was looking at 0-100psi

- Oil temperature gauge: I was looking at 50-150 degreesC

- Water temperature gauge: I was looking at 40-130 degreesC

Anyone offer any advice if these are the correct ranges or not?

Many thanks

Rob

Mixing units here!

Oil pressure might hit 9-10 bar cold (more likely 8) so make sure your gauge can show that.

Water temp should not go above around 105C.

Boost...well, depends on what it's mapped for. 2.5 covers most tunes. 2.0 bar is also way higher than most will go to.
