Which gauges do I need? Help!
Hello,
I just bought a boost and oil temp combo gauge, and was wondering what other gauges I really need and why? Oil Pressure, EGT, Air/Fuel, ETC. Trying to keep the my total # of gauges to four. Any input appreciated. Thanks

Depends on how modded your car is and how you drive it.
Right off the bat you can forget about the A/F gauge unless it's a real one with a wideband 02 sensor. The "tapped in" ones are worthless. EGT is useful if you have power mods and run more than stock boost. |

I am getting the combo from a gentleman on subaruforester-com, I think that they are only made for the forester though.
As far as mods, I am just thinking of putting a vf39 on the Fxt. |

You can't "just" swap the turbo, you need proper engine management and supporting mods to go with it. But if you're going in that direction, an EGT gauge is definitely a good idea.
