AEM Serial gauge sensors?

AEM Serial gauge sensors?
Would I need seperate Oil Pressure and Oil temp sensors in order to get a readout on the Serial gauge or would the stock ones work? I will be using it with the AEM EMS with UEGO.
I take it that you can set boost control in the EMS but what is everyone using to control their boost settings in the cockpit?

I don't think stock S2000 has transducers for oil temp or oil pressure, just a low oil pressure switch.
AEM sells tranducers for pressure, temp, O2, and more. For pressure, just buy the right range transducer and wire it up to a spare input.
AEM EMS comes with 4 spare RTD channels for temps. All you need to buy are the RTDs and wire them up.
Or you can get their 4 channel driver box for thermocouples (better at hi temps) then buy thermocuples and thermocouple wire. Thermocouples come in different Types (J,K,T) and the wire must match the thermocouple.
Once the transducers are wired up, you must configure the EMS scaling on the inputs that they are wired up to. Then the EMS can accurately read these new signals.
Now to display them on the serial gauge. I think there are 7 stock transducer signals automatically configured when you buy it. That leaves 12 spares for your new temps, pressures, whatever. The serial gauge needs to be configured to display whichever new signals you added to the EMS. Configure the scaling and you can put alarm setpoints (hi and low) on each channel as well.
AEM also has a new boost controller/gauge. Check out their website, why don'tcha?

You need to purchase the oil pressure senders seperately and wire them into your D connector on the AEM EMS:

Thanks for your replies.
What about Oil Temp sensor? I looked at AEMs site and this is not a listed part? Their Oil Temp gauge comes complete with sensor so I'm assuming the must do one for it. So the Oil Pressure sensor is also a nitrous sensor..
Anyone using their boost controller? Is it any good?
