which gauge should I get?
I decided to go with the pod that sits right behind the steering wheel and would like to know what kind of gauge would be useful.
I'm getting the boost gauge for sure but not sure about the other one. Should I get oil pressure or water temperature gauge? |

I would go with oil pressure over water temperature if i had the choice between the two.Overheating is bad enough,but if your oil pressure is low or your not making any and you get on the car,you can kiss your motor goodbuy.

I think you can access both of those temps from the secret menus. A PITA to go into them every time you start the car, but if you only need them once in a while...

Check that, I don't think you can get oil pressure from the menus. If you get the oil pressure gauge, then you can put water temp on the secret menu screen and have both!
