Essential gauges
What would you consider essential gauges for monitoring a FI setup on a civic (d16y8)? And why?
I'm running stock internals and tuning with the AFC Hack. BTW, the VAFC II does include monitoring on some things, like knock sensor. |

A/F gauges are notorious for being inaccurate. |

A/F gauges are notorious for being inaccurate. EDIT: Ok, I'm thinking EGT and Oil press - the oil light is useless if you really like your engine. The VAFC monitors boost. EGT can help me ghetto tune the a/f. If it is hot, add fuel and see what happens! But this isn't obviously the best way to tune the entire range. :( |
Re:Essential gauges
knocking can also make you run hotter. "knocking" or detonation does not make you run hotter, you run hotter and detonate due to lean conditions. |
