I think most probably you'll need a boost and exaust temp. For water temp., you current meter indication should be sufficient. You might want to consider using fully synthetic engine oil. Try Q8 engine oil. Seems to be very good on my car.

Look after your turbine, and engine oil change freq. If you keep your car stock, it should be running smoothly all the time.

1) Boost- You know how healthy the turbine is
2) Oil Temp - If you're oil coolers work
3) Water Temp - Radiator can cope or not
4) Ext Temp - To check if you're running rich or lean (by the way rich is safe just dont run lean)

Get a turbo timer. Use any good ol oil you like just get it serviced often as blowby leaves lots of dirt in oil. Good oil filter. Hope this helps.

yes man..use Q8...better....looks for me if wan change motor oil.....u try Q8.....no regret....i can get cheaper for u...direct from distributor......

my location owes at wangsa maju,zo0 negara, setapak areas......

if normal drive..no tune no modify......turbo timer n boost meter sufficient....

if u juz change engine...u can try Q8 semi syn 1st..run it for 4000km then change to Q8 fully syn....u can feel d differences....most users said better than mobil, shell, bp , petronas......etc....

Q8 semi syn rm85 +/-.....fully syn rm 41 +/- for 1 litre.........my 2 cents

4) Ext Temp - To check if you're running rich or lean (by the way rich is safe just dont run lean)

alternatively you can get a/f meter more expensive but more accurate

Oh yes, I know Roy too. Super powerful Subaru, he has. Hahaha....I think Roy is either a partner or agent for Tony for Q8.
