Track day gauges - recommend?

[Pingman]

Looking to get boost, oil pressure and oil temp gauges to monitor whilst on track.

I would like the gauge to be able to show the highest figure reached and ideally to also have an alarm function built in that could be set for a certain figure, do these exist?

Without paying silly money, you might get away with an iPhone app combined with a bluetooth OBD-II dongle.

You are probably into something like this - http://www.demon-tweeks.co.uk/motorsport/dash-disp... if you want it all in one unit; does a lot more than you are looking for though, there may be simpler versions available.

You won't get oil pressure readings through OBD and probably not oil temp either (depending on car).

Thanks for the replies so far guys,

Has not got to be anything as fancy as that to be honest, a single 52mm gauge for each will do.

Just would need each gauage to be able to show peak reading and would be nice to have an alarm set point on the gauge.

There must be gauges that can do this.

Was hoping to get to the Autosport show on Sunday but the boiler and the friggin washing machine had other ideas! (it never rains...)

No one?

Had millions of gauges in all my cars over the years!

Defi and Stack both do gauges doing exactly what you want.

have used both in past.

I found some:

Unsure if they're any good but will give them a go

Now have oil pressure and temp with a visual and audible warning set at a certain point fitted to my MK after blowing an engine at Mallory.

Definately worth having.
