Engine Monitoring
http://www.zeitronix.com/Products/zt2/zt2.htm
so this wideband is also a boost gauge? so instead of buying a boost gauge and a pyrometer or an A/F ratio gauge i should prolly get this wideband - right? I can tune uberdata with this right?

Re:Engine Monitoring
In order to read boost and EGT you need the extra accessories from www.Zeitronix.com
The EGT probe is $65 and the boost sensor is $135. Kinda pricey.......
You either need the display, which is $149, or a laptop to read anything.

Re:Engine Monitoring

Re:Engine Monitoring
Get a wideband. Either Zeitronix or some other kind. Only thing besides the wideband that you should consider getting are boost gauge and oil pressure guage. EGT would also be a nice thing to get but not a necessity...
Good luck with your build.

My suggestion:
Buy the Zeitronix kit and tune with a laptop. Buy an EGT gauge and a boost gauge.

So what you're saying is you want to halfass it and blow your motor? Sounds good........
