I'm looking to buy Oil Temp, Oil Pressure, and Water Temp guages for my S5 n/a, I was curious what sweep for the needle do I need to buy?
I am looking at the Autometer Ultra-lite series, and they have these guages in 3 diff sweep veriations. Their relative price to each other is not an issue, I just need to know which will give me the best accuracy for the temp and pressure range my car will spend most of its time in. Thanks |
i would get the biggest sweep you can....

Well autometer ultra-lite - electric only has 90deg sweep, and mech - full sweep. But I dont want oil coming into the cabin and running the lines for the mech guage.
What kinds of pressures (hi & lo) and temps (hi & lo) can i expect to see on a S5 n/a with a street port and full RB TII exhaust? |
Depends on what oil pump and regulator they used when they built the engine.

Its a pineapple ported engine, the pump and regulator will be stock. It is being built now! :monkydance: :mullet: https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/beer2.gif

mike Everyone hates Autometer...but the alternatives are not that great either (in some respect or another - ie. price). I am talking about the Ultra-lite series, which is one of the better lines of guages they offer. |

Ummm...thanks for the link and all. But those are still like $200 each. I still consider that an arm and a leg. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.png
