colsoop Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 Boost, oil pressure,EGT then use the airvent next to the clock for your AFR gauge Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
merckx Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 Personally I prefer oil temp to oil pressure. It's nice to have an idea of when the engine is warmed up, the water temp gauge is of little use for this. Won't there be a warning for low oil pressure on the Supra anyway?

Paul Whiffin Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 EGT, Oil temp and Water temp if it were me. Most owners who are at the stage of extra gauges would have a boost controller which have boost gauges built in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You do if you want an accurate water temp reading, stock one is useless on the track. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guigsy Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 I have boost, EGT and AFR. But mine was a 2 guage pod i added an extra smaller pod to for the AFR. I previously had the boost in the vent near the clock which was good but i missed the air at that side. And i use the clock all the time as i dont use a watch so didnt want to loose it.
