Baseline Gauge Fiqures
Following on from Paul's Stack thread.It got me thinking about when do you know you've hit trouble.
For example say I'm travelling at around 90MPH on the bypass,what readings should the gauges be at.
Or say I've come out of the chicane at Snetterton and now about to power up the start/finish straight.
What should the readings be,and what will they be at if something's about to go Pete Tong.
All example's based on either a stage three or Mike's spec,using common Cossie gauges or SECS-type monitor setups.

er... do you actually have a car yet?
I'd worry about that first
here are some rough ones...
Water temp- under 100c ideally
oil temp - between 100-120c
oil pressure- you REALLY want some of this! 0 is BAD...
Charge temp- under 45c ideally
volts- you want some of those too! 14 is good I think
EGT- over 1000c is not your mate
Boost- MORE the better. ALWAYS.
