I've already got a A/F mixture gauge, and a CHT gauge to install. Would it be worth putting in an EGT gauge (I can get a good deal on one) too, or is that just overkill? Oh yeah, running a carbed 2.0L (or at least will be), 44 IDF's, WebCam, etc...
My initial thought is that it would be helpful in tuning, and maybe keeping my valve seats where they belong. |
