Gauges Qs for stock SR - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

Now that my SR is in and running, I need some gauges, notably boost and oil pressure. I was thinking of getting a third, EGT seems pretty popular, but is it really necessary for a non-highly tuned SR? Even with mods, I probably won't go past 250hp and the stock T25 for a long time.

How does a EGT help you monitor engine performance anyway? From what I gather it's just an alternative to an air/fuel gauge.

Do greddy electronic oil pressure and egt gauges still require drilling to mount a sensor in the engine compartment?

Thanks
