Curious if this is the smartest way to go if I have 4 gauges to work with.

A/F
Boost
Oil Pressure
Oil Temp

The A/F is autometer and the other 3 are Defi BF Amber.

Curious if Fuel Pressure would be a better idea then either Oil Pressure or Oil temp, since I am having a CJM Stage 2 Fuel System installed.

Thanks for the input.

 

Id rather get fuel pressure than oil pressure because the oem gauge is pretty damn accurate! .. Id rather u not waste ur money on double gauges like i did.....

 

CJM comes with a fuel pressure gauge on the FPR. You can't see when you are driving obviosly, but the A/F gauge should tell you if you are leaning out.

 

Based on his signature, I'd say he didn't have an oem oil pressure gauge.

How about EGT? Not important?

 

i have never been in an 03 base.. but u telling me they dont have an oem oil press gauge/volt/whole bunch of **** gauge/ ..

 

I think he has a G..G's are not equipeed with oil pressure gauges

 

I have the EXACT same setup. I would rather get the innovate wideband instead of the A/F from autometer. I choose oil pressure because I replaced all my stock gauges for aftermarket ones.

 

Ding ding ding

 

Get a wideband. a/f guages are soooo 1990's

 

Ok, thanks for the lesson in smartassademics.. BTW no where in his sig does it say he has a fucking G..

 

I put a PLX dm-100 connected to 2 wideband sensors and 2 egt sensors, one for each bank. They are pretty easy to set up, a little expensive but they give you so many choices to configure and re-configure gages.

HMMMM OKAY, HE HAS A Z COUPE?

Hehe I'm just messing with ya man relax.

 

So is PLX AFR monitoring in GENERAL the +/- 1.0 like someone posted about the different AFR gauges?

I had and old M-250 with a 52mm gauge and that thing was pure crap. Has PLX improved their stuff?

 

uh......... check the link.. neva heard of a z coupe..

Trust.. I didnt take u serious..

 

Umm what I meant was (in sarcasm) ... what other type of Z is there? Z Sedan?

But aaanyways, PLX?

Oil pressure gauge vs fuel pressure gauge?

Fuel pressure gauge can be mounted inside the engine bay, but so can the oil pressure gauge.

 

Z coupe, Z roadster

 

After asking a few shops and getting other members opinions, i think you really only NEED a A/F and a boost gauge. You can have as many as you like to feel safe. but i think you only really NEED these 2.

 

Ok you got me

Jason, what about fuel pressure or oil pressure... in the event that your oil pump sh*ts itself?

 

Yeah like i said "if" you have the pod. The Z's have an oil gauge, and I THINK you can see fuel pressure change your a/f's if you are having an issue. I could be wrong though.

*edit*
i didn't state before, but if you have a pod

 

It is a true wideband gage, under WOT mine reads between 11 and 12 and shows between 14 and 15 at cruise speeds.
This is the first A/F gage I've had, as far as I know so far it has been pretty accurate, the sensor is a bosch. I only have one DM-100 display now, once they release the fuel/oil pressure sensors I plan on installing 2 more in the gage pod on the dash. Oil Pressure, Fuel Pressure, Intake air temp, oil temp, data logger and OBDII. I may even have transmission and differential temp.
