Recently bought a 91 925a2. Added egt/boost gauges and customized in a K&N. (oh,, and tried the little direct filter to see just how much the intake may be restricting it,,, not near as much difference as i thought there would be.)

Nice I just put my gauges in next is an intercooler. I've been running the 4k governor springs and we cranked the fuel to it and I cut out the muffler, it runs way better but need to do some mods to bring down the egt's.

Hey DWC, what is the part number for the K&N filter that you put in the filter can? Is that the standard 5 ton air filter housing/can. I see you added brackets to hold the filter centered. How is it all working? Nice setup. Thanks for the help.

K&N 38-2013S. Yeah, it's the stock airbox. Cross-referenced the smaller Donaldson filter everyone is using. It worked out well I think, and helped some. I'm going to do an intercooler and turbo next. It get's as hot as I'll let it, and fast.

Yeah mines the same way if you keep on the hammer it'll push some egt's fast.
