i was wondering what guages you guy and gals would recommend and,
what guages you all have
 
I have Boost, Oil Pressure, and Air/Fuel, soon to have an EGT Gauge. Like EvulFlea said, get what you need.

If you're still N/A, it's a waste to have some gauges now, unless you just want to be a ricer and make people think your car is fast because you have gauges. :)
 
Thats funny, call a car a ricer because it has guages. First of all even though DSM's are mostly Mitsu, they were designed and built mostly in the US. Hell, DSM is a coop between Mistu motor corp and chrysler motor corp (motor division). But what most people don't know, is that chrysler motor corp (motor division), started out in the 1960's as HEMI motor corp. As long as the car has a 4G63 (NT or T) or a 420a, it technically cannot be called a ricer, and that is because to be a ricer, the engine has to be produced in Japan, not the body. Honda Engines = ricer, New 3g Eclipse = ricer, Nissan engines = ricer.

okay hold on.

first off the 4g63 is a mitsubishi engine. you can tell that alone by the designation. 1.8l is the 4g37. so technically the engine is rice burner.

eagle is actually derived from amc, makers of great cars:rolleyes: , the american motor company (don't forget the eagle part)
 
i have volt, water temp and air ful

The eclipse have no voltmeter stock therefore i put one in.

The stock H / C does not work for me therefore i put a water temp in.

The Air . Fule is a waste of money, did not realize this before i bought it.

Call it what you will (ricer ?) but i like to be informed of what my engine is doing.

Very soon will be oil pressure, fuel pressure and a egt gauge.
 
THe guy above is smart :) Yes the A/F is pointless for being N/A. If you have an safc to lean it out you will want a REAL a/f to show volts coming from the 02 and not some stupid blinky gauge.

Anyway ricer doesn't imply to imports. Ricer applys to anyone with any car. I hate using that term but whatever.

xhypno I have no clue why you bring up such stupid sh*t.
