Gauges
 
Looking into getting a chip and some gauges, my brother has glowshift on his 12v and im looking at those. But my question is what does the stock turbo run for boost? Im not sure to get the 35 or the 60. If it wont ever go past 35 with the stock turbo i will get that. Also, what is the max you want to run your egt? There is a 2400 and 1500 deg gauge. I think i want the 1500 right?

i have a 99 with chip exhaust and intake and a boost fooler and i have a 35 psi gauge and it works fine i boost 33 psi so its perfect and u dont want youe egt's to go over 1200 degrees so the 1500 will work fine i have that to but i have auto meter gauges and i love them

if you get the 60 psi guage and the 2400 egt guage then you wont have to upgrade your guages later when you start bombing it. just my .02

i would get more than those gauges imo.. i would get a trans temp (if auto) and water temp,

i know of quiet a few people around here running glow shift gauges and they dont like them, the pyros are off by 300-400 degree's thats with them mounted in the manifold (proper location)

what have you decided on
i like my fantom II's personally

Like stated before in several posts GlowShift Gauges are JUNK. Stick with Isspro, Autometer or DiPricol.

Not sure yet my brothers glowshift work just great. Yea I have an auto so boost, trans, and egt

well do you still have an early 99 turbo set up?? do you think you will ever step up.
i know when i ran that set up i never say anything past 28psi on a good good day and i have 1600 degree gauge and that s fine.. any thing past 1300 for extended periods of time will cause damage so why need a 2400 degree gauge

Yea exactly. I got 4" tb straight pipe. Gonna do a DIY intake and a TW chip. Ill probably never do anymore mods. At least not for a long time.
