really leaning toward the amber-white, prosport gauges, for my rx8 turbo build.... looks like a great match of the factory white day, red night lighting...
went with the "lotec" gauge mounting since I don't have nav
kinda stuck on there widebands though
Wideband Premium Series 52mm Air Fuel Ratio Gauge-Amber/White display
|
needle only, looks like good interior match...,
vs
sweeping led + digital readout( what I generally use/prefer) doesn't appear to compliment interior as much...
Wideband Digital Air Fuel Ratio Gauge-Amber display
then still at ends if I should get the mechanical or electronic boost gauge...
3rd gauge is going to be egt.
what are your thoughts?

So long story short I foul my spark plug on my Hyundai scoupe turbo 93 (daily driver) two days in a roll. So I order the coil and the coolant temp sensor and temperature sending unit, after I found this:
Coolant temperature sensors provide coolant temperature data to the engine management system
When not replaced, vehicle could experience pinging, excessive hydrocarbons in oil resulting in premature engine bearing wear, spark plug fouling, catalytic converter failure, poor fuel economy and/or CEL/MIL illumination.
Car is running like new, Fyi
