Gauges

[mobs241]

so i want to get a 3 gauge pod for my alero.
i know for a fact i want to get a a/f autometer cobalt gauge
and a clock for one of the pods..
what else should i get?
amps or tranny temp?
hmmm

[-Alero-]

a clock!?............why would you need a clock when your car can tell time anyway.....

[jabartram]

I just got my 3 guage pillar pod, air/fuel, oil pressure, and boost(incentive reminder for the rsm supercharger i'm saving for) are what i'm putting in, if that helps at all?

[mobs241]

where can my car keep the time? lol
mine cant.
and my aftermarket headunit has siris so it says the name of the band.

and due to the fact that i deliver pizzas, and time is money i need a farking clock. adn the walgreens one i had taped to the spot under my headunit keeps falling off.lol

I got the a/f, volts, and EGT.

I got the Faze gauges and I love them

here's a pic

[mobs241]

what does teh egt one do?
and where did you get them
tnx

[Molson]

I have an Autometer Phantom Oil Press and Volt for sale.

(1.) Oil Pressure (2.) Amps or Volts (3.) intake manifold vacume pressure. Those would be my top 3 choices.

For whoever asked, EGT = Exhaust Gas Temperature, it monitors the temperature of your exhaust gas (duh). EGTs should be a certain temperature and if it's above or below this ideal temperature it means you're running too rich or too lean etc. It's a good way of preventing or detecting detonation.

now i feel stupid cause i knew that. son of a bish.

[SilverBullet256]

i added a oil pressure, EGT, and intake manifold pressure, and soon when i get my s/c ill be adding a boost gauge B)

[Pimpalero03]

i have two gauges. both show me the pressures in my struts B)

grrrrr

[Redog]

I love the EGT gauge

I run between 850 and 1000 under normal driving.

I can hit 1400 under hard accel at the track B)

I got the gauges at Summit Racing (http://www.summitracing.com). Just type in FAZE in the search box :thumbsup:

If you had an air/fuel ratio gauge....why would you want the EGT gauge as well?....They A/F Ratio gauge tells you if you're lean/rich....and probably more accurate than the EGT.

EGT tells temperature.........A/F tells the ammount of oxygen being displaced throughout the exhaust.

The EGT is more accurate on a computer controlled fuel system
