Got a blower....what gauges do I need?

[TweekedGT]

Now that I got my KB what gauges will I need? Obviously boost but what else? I have a 96 so I'm going to take out the clock pod on the dash and put the gauge pod there. What should i get? I hate having a 96 for this reason. Can't get any good gauges or clusters. Stupid manual odometer crapola .

That and fuel pressure seem to be popular. If you want, you can get a wide band O2 kit and be able to read the afr. That is optional and not many have it. It is about $500 too.

Boost if you're interested in seeing it (probably not a bad idea anyway to be sure you're making max boost.)

Fuel pressure, to make sure you don't starve it under boost.

Oil pressure was my first and will stay closest to my face on the a-pillar when the KB goes on next year.. if you lose oil pressure, or suddenly see a huge drop, killing the engine immediately could be the difference between a rebuild or a new block.

ya dont need an a/f gauge unless you want a bouncy light that really doesn't do a whole lot. get a wideband if your that interested. otherwise, boost, fuel, and oil.

Definatly get an oil gauge. I prefer a mechanical one so you don't need a sending unit. They are more accurate.

You can get a wideband setup for around $350. I personally wouldn't run a power adder without one. The peace of mind is well worth the cost.
