Default (PICS) Double Din Install and Nitrous Relocation!

i posted pictures the last go around of how i had the Nitrous tanks and Subs hooked up and it felt off, it wasnt to the quality that i wanted. So Thanks to "RAZOR2430" From California Corvette Customs my car is now what i pictured. I couldnt be any more happy.

I went with the Pioneer AVIC-Z2 and the guys down at California Corvette Customs made my bezel for me and retextured my console. Here are a few befor and after pictures.

WOAH. What head unit is that, and are those "gauges" taking inputs from actual sensors? NEVER seen that before and am very intrigued.

Man, that would be sweet if you could get a MAP signal for boost, Fuel Pressure, and integrate a wide band. I'd be pressing for this setup in a heartbeat if I could do that and ditch the A-pillar gauges.
