If a gauge pod was available for the FiST and you could add two extra gauges; what two would you choose?

This would NOT be multifunction units like a Cobb AP.

Boost pressure and engine temp would be my choice.

Boost and oil but if I knew more about what wide band does I might say that.

Boost and wideband, if AFRs made any sense with these engines lol.

I've already got a boost gauge so yes to that. Probably coolant or oil temp/pressure.

MOFiST,
Do they have Boost gauge that matches that?

Um tbh I just did a quick Google search to see if they existed. That pic came from an aircraft instruction handbook I think. I haven't looked closely at it yet but I may need another boost gauge to match if a gauge pod gets off the ground.

I would stuff so many gauges in the pillar you would think I was driving some kind of alien ship or some kind of military aircraft.

But If I had to choose only two...
Boost pressure is 100% yes
Maybe oil or intake temp. Most likely intake temp as we have an oil temp display already. I've been waiting for a pillar mount. I've already had to replace the adhesive that came with my dash mount and put industrial Velcro in it's stead.

I would add a boost gauge and a wide band personally. I hate not knowing what's going on with my engine. Ford really should have at least put a boost gauge somewhere in these cars.

Boost and Current gear. I can never remember what gear I am in... it's the guage I glance at most on my AP. Oh yeah, maybe a shift light.

Maybe you should be looking?

This company seems to do dual function gauges. http://www.innovatemotorsports.com/
I'm not sold completely on the look but not sure there is that many decent options. I'd personally prefer a dual analog sweep.
Good to know there could be something cooking in the works. B)

Boost and a dual function IAT/turbo outlet. I am still waiting for someone to crack the software so we can have GTResk gauges in our info screen.

D1JL, thanks. I did correctly label the link as for oil pressure/temp., but the context was confusing so thanks for the clarification.
