Hi Guys & Girls, I was wondering what type and what make of gauges I should get once the Lexus is supercharged?
Was having a look for some but I have no idea which ones to go for.
I'm looking for something that dose what its supposed to and looks very cool.
Any help would be great and would like to know where is the best place to get them from.
also what kind of price,what I mean will I have to wait for Santa to get them for me whistling.gif
Cheers Mole

Not sure on a Supercharged car but on a turbo charged I would say BOOST, EGT (Exhaust Temp) and Oil Temp. I think a Supercharged would be the same smile.gif

Also try and get Electrical gauges rather then mechanical. The Electronic gauges are supposed to be more accurate and operate smoother.

Thanks for that guys,Think it will have to be on my Santa list unless I can preswade the Boss.
You all know who that is laugh.gif
I thought it would be Boost , Oil temp & pressure .Do you need exhaust temp

No point getting an exhaust gas temp gauge with a Supercharger, only needed on a turbo.

Oil Temp, and boost i'd suggest.

Problem is most boost gauges go to 2bar or higher and we run at 0.3bar which is only a small movement on the scale,

Still useful though.
