I would recommend EGT, oil pressure and oil temp as the main 3 if your have room for more boost and afr are great too. Most would say boost in their top 3 but the three i stated are my tops.

you almost don't need the boost guage for monitoring performance.

i'd go with
oil temp
EGT
and something else (i picked boost :P )

so would egt oil temp and tanny temp or oeil pressure be best?

I went with EGT, Boost, and Oil Temp.


Wideband O2 Sensors are too expensive.

Is there any place i can get a kit for oil tem/press and egt and afr?
where should i put the extra one?

What about AFR??? Isn't that much more important than EGT???(especially with FI)

i dont know, thats why im asking...

From what i've been told Wideband AFR is pretty expensive. I think there are some good narrowband AFR guages, but they are also expensive. EGT is the cheaper way of doing things.
