well I just want to know what gauges would be best for the 3 gauge pillar, I know the boost gauge for sure and was thinking about a wideband, but I have no clue what to put in the third hole... what do people normally put in those two extra spaces?

 

I have Boost, Water Temp, Oil pressure. Ill be adding to more which will be Wideband, and EGT Gauge most likely.

 

egt
wideband
stock boost

 

thanks for the info, but what is a EGT guage, what does it do? also would this be the three most important gauges?

boost
EGT
Wideband?

 

exhaust gas temperature... alows you to monitor your temperatures. Too hot your running to lean, too cool you are too rich its a very important thing!

 

thats more important for you tc guys than the sc guys no?

 

absolutely not... Check your Number 4 and tell me if it's important or not!

I had one on my LSJ for 2 years very informative!

 

but if I put a wideband then I would not need the etg gauge, correct?

 

Matt, know what our EGT's would be like with a ported head, TVS and meth? guestimate?

 

Those 3 gauges are what I and many other highly tuned LSJ's were and are running!

My EGT's at WOT in 3rd were like 1400* I would say prolly the same 1300-1350*

 

ok nice, so I should get them from OTT right?

1. AEM Gauge Type Wide band UEGO Controller

2. stock boost gauge

3.

ah damn ott don't have egt gauges...

 

i'm getting my noodle header coated in chromex, and i guess around 1300* the coating starts to oxidize... hmm...

They may not have them n stock, but contact them, i'm sure they could get you one.

 

I'll have boost gauge, wideband, and interceptor.

 

I got my EGT from Ebay it was the Autometer UltraLite kit... make sure it says KIT in it or you won't get the EGT probe!

Please tell me you didn't get the damn JBjunk header???

Those are nice for people who don't tune their own car... I log and tune so I have zero knock which is all I cared about that gauge would tell me!

 

great, thanks alot!!! going to order them tonight!

 

i did, couldn't resist the sound it creates man. I know, i fail, but i am weak. I'll be getting either the CTI DP and catback, or a local race shop will cuild me a full 3" that can make a top fuel dragster sound like a prius

 

You fail....send it back!

 

number 4 isn't my problem its 2 and 3

 

never. It looks too evil, and sounds too good. we'll see, i thnk our hatred of the JBizzlePizzle is tainting our view on a potentially awesome part.

 

That sound is due to it's unequal length runners... I like the sound too... just think a better long tube would be a better option!

 

more HP FTW when buying headers!!

 

yulp... the EGT is interesting....

When it's cold out you can really see your EGT's increase, and with pulley changes they increase as well...

WHen I had my LSJ with the 2.8 and meth at WOT they were at 1300-1325*

with the 2.7 and meth they were at 1400ish* HA HA HA

 

hahah so what would b a good egt? whats the limit, cuz I have a 2.8 with no cooling mods...well a CAI...
