I bought a 2 gauge pod, along with a new boost gauge, but I'm undecided what to buy for a second gauge. I was thinking possibly oil temp., or maybe a wideband O2. I am not at the stages of tuning where I would get a lot of use out of the O2 sensor right now, but probably in the future.
Any suggestions on what you think would be the most useful choice??
I will be going with auto meter gauges.

the uego was suppose to be the most accurate but when I was the dyno the other week it was alittle of from what the computer reading was. So your guess is better than mine.

AEM UEGO.. no question. but w/e you want.. its up to you.


So the AEM UEGO would be significantly better than the autometer equivalent?? I was just wanting to stay with the same brand mostly for aesthetic purposes, but if the AEM is that much better i'll get that.

Also, how much is this gauge and where's the best place to buy it?

The autometer is only a narrowband so YES the AEM wideband would be significantly better.

Actually, autometer now has a narrow band as well as a wideband. I think it's a fairly new product for them though.

I would think that you would go with a oil pressure gauge, since i heard the factory ones were "iffy at best" I read on a thread somewhere on the forums.

I run boost and oil temp. When your tubo is only oil cooled it might not be a bad idea to keep an eye on it. I bought an aftermarket oil cooler with ports already on it so it was pretty easy to install.
