What guage to get

Well on the CRX I am getting a Guage pod for 2 guages, In one is going my Boost guage, but what should I put in my other one... I was thinking Air Fuel, but a buddy told me that for Boost application an Exaust temp would be more accurate... anyone know if this is true ?

Deffinetly EGT. A/F gauges usally just read the stock O2 sensor and aren't that accurate. EGT gauges actually tell you the temp. that your exhaust is getting up to so you know if your having a problem.

Re: What guage to get

I would say the 2 most important gauges are water temp & oil pressure

For a turbo I would go oil pressure.

If you can fit a boost gauge there where mine is (The CRX will take more work to do than a civic) it is a awesome spot. Easy to see and hidden.

If you see on the white face pic the skinny open spot under the wiper arm is where I relocated the hazard switch to. The switch is 1/4" short, but I ran the VAFC wire through the hole so it fits like a glove.

The VAFC is held on with velcro, and has enough wire to be thrown behind the radio, for a almost completely stock look.
