This is the one thing many people don't realize, or think about, when adding boost.

What are you all planning on running for guages and such, speaking of supporting mods

jwick · 03-18-2014, 01:12 PM

I'm running AFR/Boost/Oil&H20 Temp/Oil Pressure

Joepro · 03-18-2014, 08:18 PM

AEM failsafe boost/afr and oil pressure, im fine with the oe water and oil temps, I dont track the car. did some spring maintenance, new brakes, rotors in the rear flushed the brake and clutch fluid, my clutch fluid was TERRIBLE, the clutch feels like new again. also did this:

The G doesn't come with an oil temp gauge. I would typically be ok with OEM water temp but the GReddy Multi-gauge will monitor water temp and it only cost me like $70 for all the necessary equipment to add it.

the lines on the aem failsafe boost/afr long enough to get from the pillar to where ever they need to go? i like this one

I used the ATI pod in the center console, they give you a heck of a lot of harness, I have tons of it wraped up behind the dash, so I would say yes no problem, I dropped the o2 wire through the shifter housing right on to the transmission, the oil pressure harness was nowhere near long enough to reach where I put the sensor which is where the OE is as well, its is only 3 wires, I just cut and soldered in about 5 feet of wire to extend it. I plan in wiring the failsafe into the EBC, that I don't have yet but need to get one before the 11th, then it will dump the wastegates if the AFR goes crazy, at least it is some protection!

thanks im going to order mine now then

Joe or Sasha, did the kit come with new hardware for the triangle flange or will I need to reuse the ones from my HFCs? I haven't gone through the entire hardware bag and just wondering if I need to source new bolts when I sell my HFCs or if I can provide the ones off my car.

All hardware is included. However, if one of the studs on the OEM headers doesn't come out, you leave it in there, and re-use the OEM nut with the stud. I think one stud stay on each one of the three-bolt flanges.

jwick · 03-18-2014, 11:57 PM

Figure that was the answer since you include EVERYTHING. I kind of remember a stud staying on each side but its been over three years since hfc install

Correct.

AlexRaymond19 · 03-19-2014, 02:48 PM

So what is the bare minimum required for guages? a/f, boost, and then?? Never really put much thought into it. I am trying to budget my build out

Also, recomended brands? Things I should stay away from? I rather do the guages on the cheaper side to get me by, then upgrade later if needed.

Boost and AFR at minimum. Don't go too cheap. If you buy some Prosport garbage and your motor lets go because the gauge malfunctioned and you didn't know you were too lean or overboosting like crazy, did you really save any money?
