Pick 2 gauges for turbo build.

Im trying to reduce the amount of Tee's and adapters needed since every connection is a possible leak.

Thanks for showing this. $60 isn't much to pay to reduce the amount of potential leak points.

I'm getting oil temp, oil pressure, boost, coolant temp, and can add AFR, EGT, fuel pressure, and read all of these by simply pushing one button and scrolling through.

The only disadvantage to multiple gauges is it only displays one thing at a time.

I plan to leave it on boost or oil temp, and check the other values periodically.

I'm getting the 200 model with OBD2 and it can show 4 param at a time. Slick! Better than the p3cars gauge.

hey
i will be installing a turbo kit soon, but i dont have any experience. I dont know these AFR, EGT, wideband, failsafe terms, how they are measured etc.
can someone explain or post a link where i can read and learn about these please.
i will need to watch my oil temp and pressure for sure, i only know that. oil temp should be under 100C, how about oil pressure? and do i need any measurement devices and drilling at oil pan? I will get oil cooler for sure, so i guess they work like radiators so it will have a pt100 anyway i guess so no need to buy i guess.
need info, thx
