Gauges Needed with FI... I am getting a D1SC, I know I will need a 0-30PSI Boost Guage are there any other necessary guages that are a must?

I would get a fuel pressure gauge for sure...It will help you tune it more...Sounds like you may have it for "necessary" gauges...I'm sure others will have more input but the only other thing that I might think of is a wide band 02\AFR...It will be a way more accurate and is more tunable than the ones that we have factory...I know, I still have to update to the wideband..

Pretty original huh?? I said to hell with thinking of one and just sprung right in to the down and dirty...Like I said, everyone has different needs but I agree having an aftermarket temp gauge would help but I just don't want my car to look like a ricer...Not saying that yours will or is but I have enough as is..Hey on a side note something that would be cool and if you had extra room that you didn't know what to do you should look at the D-pic from auto meter...It has like all kind of cool gadgets on it like G-force, 1\4 mile time, horsepower and all kind of stuff....It's pretty nifty...

What A/F gauge do you have currently???
The one from Autometer doesnt help us FI guys one but........
The gauges needed in will be Fuel pressure #1
You are going to spend a lil $$ on the FP gauge since it will have to be electric since no fuel can enter the cab. Most FP gauge run around $200
Boost is another good one also... vacum-20 psi id enough for most.
Now A/F using a real wideband is the way to go.
The XD-1 from innovative Motorsports works awsome and comes with everything.
Its a lil spendy also...$400
Thats just my .02 since i have been down the SC road before...

No prob...... install the wideband O2 sensor under the drivers seat in the exhaust.. there's a drain plug there you can use as a grommet and run the wires up to the A-Pillar.
