got a nomad piller pod for the boost, and ive made a fibre glass mount down for where the ash tray area is. covered it in some fake leather stuff, like the material the gear gaiter is made from
What he saidJib, oil temp and boost are best IMO.
Boost for monitoring health of the turbo. (overboosting and not enough boost and you'll know straight away that you have a problem)
Some peope say oil pressure instead of oil temp but i dont see the reason why. If theres a problem with oil pressure the oil pressure light will come on on the dash so whats the point? Its a very boring gauge aswell, it will hardly ever move.
Oil temp lets you know when to put the foot down and when not too. Let it get upto 85-95c before giving it the beans, anything above 120c and then back off!
No gauge, no way of knowing this!
I dont care what anyone says chipped LCR's have a problem with running extremely high oil temps, you need to know when to back off! A sustained 100+mph run will easily see the temp reach beyond 120c. A top speed run for just a few minutes and you'll be at the top end of the temp gauge!
Not good, and without a temp gauge you would never know!
I would say a temp gauge is a must for a chipped LCR!
To be perfectly honest, considering the price, the nomad pillars are shite. The velcro is more than useless. I use silicone adhesive and I still have a gap along the top edge.right guys sorry if i have mised this ih this post but as i was aware the nomad posts for the LCR only come with VELCROW to fix it, is this true?
Does this not leave the fix a little shitty?
Im reluctantly getting a gauge (as i just ont like the look of them usually but really need one) so want to find the best quality mounting.
