Do i need a boost gauge if i'm planing to get a e-01
 

hi guy just order the Greddy TT kit, just wanted to know if i plan on getting e-01 would i still need i boost gauge? with the e-01 is the gauge lag at all or is it real time readout? thank for the info

U wont need a boost gauge since the e-01 displays boost. U can get one if u plan on adding a gauge pillar so that u dont take ur eyes off the road to look at the e-01(assuming u install it where the navi comparment is)

I would get one i been hearing some case's about the boost controller been off as much as 2psi compared to a gauge thats why im about to add my gauge back in with my setup.

Supposedly, you can also use the P/W/H Greddy pressure gauge sensor with the e01 to log/display boost.

So, spend $100 on a pressure sensor vs. $185 on the boost gauge that includes it. At least that's how I see it.

The E01 is really hard to read when you're on the road. It's difficult to see the screen and wash out is a big issue.

RSX8600 said it first, the boost controllers do not read quickly or accurately enough. We've had this issue with the HKS EVC, the A'pexi AVC-R, and the Profec. We always recommend a seperate dedicated boost gauge. Something like the Greddy with peak hold and warning or the similiar A'pexi gauges. Better to be safe then sorry!

Hope that helps.

Just reread what I posted and I said it backwards.

What I meant is for only $85 more then getting the boost sensor, you might as well get the Greddy P/W/H boost gauge and have both an analog display with P/H/W and eManages ability to log info all for only $185 total.
