The people who have spent their hard earned dollars and put our equipment to the test. However, we feel that our best endorsements come from our customers. Great question, and one to which we could give you a whole list of reasons as answers. If it involves pressure, vacuum, temperature, position, travel, event, or RPM, we can help you monitor it. You can start looking at nitrous bottle or fuel pressure, transmission pressure or temperature, brake pressure, manifold vacuum or boost, water/oil/cylinder head temperature, ignition timing, shock travel, event markers, throttle position, lap times, track segment times, track mapping…. From there it just depends on how hungry you are for information. Popular items include the exhaust gas temperatures (indicator of rich/lean fuel mixture), fuel pressure (fuel system efficiency), oil pressure (engine problem warning), pan vacuum (engine efficiency or warning signals), along with an accelerometer (G-meter) and battery voltage. After that the selection starts to spread out. Driveshaft speed is used to look at tire slippage and also to calculate a slippage ratio between the engine and the clutch or torque converter. ![]() Almost everyone is going to want to see the engine RPM and the driveshaft RPM. ![]() The answer to that can depend somewhat on what type of car the recorder is in. ![]()
