Knowledge is Power? hello Power, my name is Sean.

So yeah... visited Mopac and got some goodies. Picked up a Automter Pyrometer & A/F gauge. Going to have the holes installed into my nicely coated Downpipe sometime this week.

Gauges on the horizon... Fuel Pressure ($300) and Oil Pressure. That should just about take care of everything I need to really get a good picture of whats going on under the hood. Then I can start raising the numbers again, 300hp sounds so sweet.

I bought a exhaust manifold gasket and am going to see a friend about him making some highflow tubular manifolds for us guys who want some room to play. Anyone here interested?

they are all screw into my Steering wheel column thingy. kinda get in the way of the tach but at least its not too noticable from outside

[seanfournier]

heres how ugly it looks...

Mang, get the clean 3 gauge panel - those gauges are not ones you need under eye the whole time, no?

Also, I thought an EGT gauge was highly recommended - sometimes even more important than AF. Any reason you're skipping it?

that looks hella crappy man do the DIN panel one if you can

[seanfournier]

I can't stand the 3 panel din mod... its like... hmmm, i'm doing 190 at 20psi, lets look down at the Pyrometer for a second or two while i get a reading... no thanks...

haha i guess you could always do a nice ricer style 3 guaged a pillar setup

[seanfournier]

EGT and Pyrometer are the same thing basically. They just use a slightly different probe.

EGT = Exhaust Gas Thermometer

Pyrometer = Exhaust Gas Thermometer.

The A/F with the Pyro provides a very complete picture as to whats going on... and when combined with the boost gauge its virtually perfect.

I've ordered a WideBand Sensor kit which I'll be hooking up soon enough. Anyone else interested in a Wideband AFR setup?

Why is 3 gauges ricer? 3 gauge a pillar set ups look awesome in my opinion

[R_Ethug]

haha no paul i'm just joking.. we can't use anymore than 1 if we have the side airbags anyways..

I wouldn't mind A/F but I also don't want the triple gauge, was thinking I might be able to rig another VAG-Elements a-pillar pod above my current one... not sure how it would look though. And although I am VERY confident that the one pod does NOT affect my airbag, 2 might.

Wow thats alot of gauges. Where do you have room to put the pokemon teddy bear =)

I bought a wideband o2 sensor tonight. I guess I'll return the A/F gauge as only now I found out they don't really work. should be fun... should be fun...
