Yep that looks fine.

I like that, is that 2 defi on the right and what on the left?
And yes the Camp2 is retarded expensive. I was able to get a decent deal on one as it was in stock and they wanted it gone, but I mine is just reading the OBD2 and a couple add on modules. Have to spend another 600 bucks for just AFR. :shakes head:

innovative lc1 digital gague

Yes it is a Innovative a/f on the left and Defi boost and oil temp gauge.

Sorry dreamer 52mm they fit right in.

And now I know what I want for Christmas...I hate you guys. :p
Which Defi set are they? The 52mm or 60mm?

Pretty sure they're the 52mm Red Racer series which is what I'm getting.

The red racer series looks nice then, I assume that is the just plug into the connection you want and do not need the defi control box or anything?

Right, it's not the setup where you need a $300 control box to run a $200 gauge.

Good, tired of spending on gauges and having to get extra sh1t that should not be required.

Oh hey maybe you guys can answer this question then:
What sensor(s) do I need to run that setup?

Innovate AFR, Defi Oil Temp and Defi Boost? I posed that question to a couple sponsors and haven't gotten a response yet.

When I bought gauges, I got the package for boost and AFR from Sam. Everything was included. I'm not sure if you buy everything seperately if you have to buy the O2 sensor separately. The oil temp should include a sender.

These gauges are pricey as **** so I'm hoping the sensors are including. Checking with the shop doing my install to see if I can get a deal.

The gauges are a bit pricey, but think of it as more insurance if anything happens. Spend a little more now and save later.

Plus, gauges look cool. I'd have them all over if I could. The more gauges, dials and little blinking lights the better. If my wallet was unlimited my dash would look like the cockpit of a 747.

Moore got the gauges I wanted for a steal. Sold.

So for the defi gauges it comes with everything you need?
The Innovative one is a kit so that has everything.

Yes. No additional hw required.

Well...my Christmas list is set already.

Ok just a quick update:
-Gauges were delivered to the shop on Fri (I think). Pics forthcoming.
-Spoke to Sam at GTM and the kit will ship to my shop this week.

I am on-schedule for install the week of 7/21

:excited:

Supercharger kit is complete. We're just waiting on the powder coater at this point (powdered couplers/intercooler).

Looks like we'll be shipping today/tomorrow at the latest.

So one last time: How important is it for me to have an oil pressure gauge? There really isn't a good place to mount one but several people have told me I'm insane not to have one.

How common are burst hoses? I would need to know sooner rather than later as I would have to order yet another gauge and figure out a place to mount the AFR gauge (I guess)

(I worry a lot)

Oil pressure is nice, but I wouldn't say necessary. Your car has a dumby light that would go off if you lost oil pressure (Read, if light goes off shut car down immediately). Even in the event that you did lose all oil, for some unknown reason, you'd have to be watching the gauge to notice.

That gauge is +$240 to my build that I don't really have plus I really hate the ricey A pillar mount. If it's not going to be useful, I really don't want to A) ruin the aesthetic or B) dip into savings for a dumb gauge I don't need.

It's not common, but it's catastrophic if it occurs.

It's up to you whether it matters enough to get one. You can always find a creative place to put the gauge if you look long enough.

I guess my question is: How much does a pressure gauge help over your standard check engine light? I mean, if it happens that fast - how likely am I to be glancing at the gauge the instant the failure happens?

I'd prefer to have the info, you'll have to decide for yourself. The light is set with a pretty low trigger so I'd say it's value is questionable.

There are some oil pressure gauges that will support an audible or visible warning below a certain pressure.

Well, I have 2 defi gauges and 1 innovate (AFR) so the pressure gauge would need to be defi. Again, that gauge is $240.

If it's REALLY worth it, I'll consider adding it to the build somehow but that's a lot for a gauge I may not need. I dunno.

There are Defi's with the warning. I had one in my S.

For me, $250 is noise in the cost of a build, and I'd rather have the extra insurance.

I don't see anything with "warning" in the description. I have the defi "red racer" series.

I think you'd have to do a higher end series to get the warnings.

Ok well the gauges I'm buying are 200+ per-gauge and I can't really go much higher than that.

With the stock warning light. When it comes on, it's too late to do anything. With a gauge. If it's a slow loss of pressure. You'll see it and shut the engine off. No such luck with the light.

Ok so last minute change. I'm going to run oil pressure, boost and AFR and delete oil temp. Reasoning being I still have my engine temp monitor and I'm not going to be doing any heavy duty track work that would get into the danger zone anyway. If the engine temp skyrockets, I will know.

Oil temp fluctuates a lot more than water temp. You might be into limp mode before you see the water temp move at all.

I'll take limp mode over engine failure any day of the week.

Any reason you can't put a gauge or two in the cubby? I'd rather do that than completely remove the oil temp gauge.

I would if I could keep my stock oil temp gauge. I don't think I can though because lol nissan.

You'd have to buy a new oil temp gauge whether you put new gauges in the dash pods or stash it in the cubby. You're far enough into this build where another $2-300 is just noise. I wouldn't go without it completely. I'd say it's arguably more important on a sc build than a boost gauge, since you're running a fixed boost level and don't have to worry about overboosting. Not to say you're considering not running a boost gauge, just that's where it would fall on my list of engine parameters to keep an eye on.
