Yep, even on the Miata I modified the stock gauges to actually be useful. The oil pressure, while not perfectly accurate, actually moves now whereas stock - it was fucking useless. It basically said "pressure" or "no pressure," and thats it.

I know the SR is obviously stock in certain countries, my dear friend, but my point was that any turbo (or higher performance motor) should have sufficient monitoring devices.

I think its a shame when companies cheap out, like cadillac.. setting up "warning lights" and THATS IT. Real cars need real gauges, period.

I cant believe someone neg-rep'ed me for saying that we should use good gauge setups. To that person, fuck you. Thanks.
