Default is having 2 boost gauges possible/useful?

I just read about a 300zxTT that had two boost gauges, one for each turbo bank or something like that

would having 2 boost gauges be at all useful or possible on the Z with say the APS kit?

Subscribing for answers.

I was wondering the same thing. I have a defi boost, defi fuel pressure, AEM wideband in a triple gauge pod. I want to get a EGT gauge but don't have anywhere to put it so I was thinking of getting the zeitronix so I can put it in my sunglass holder and use it for the EGT even though I would get a second wideband. Since the boost sensor is only $100 more I thought it would be cool to have two boost gauge.

BTW, did you sell your zeitronix? I was waiting for my bonus check so I never got back to you.

the intake manifold is fed with one charge pipe... so there is nothing to see here. even a 300ZX has a pressure balance tube across the plenums, so I am not sure the point. BLING i guess.

It would be kind of like wearing two watches. There is a chance one would tell the wrong time but it's kinda retarded looking, lol!

the only way you will see a difference from one gauge to the other is if your using autometer gauges.

hey gman2004 you know anyone that uses the zeitronix? I was considering about it myself due the boost, egt, and wideband o2 but not sure about it. I wonder how will does it function and is it easy to use?
