Default Show me your gauge setups, please

About to get my Z back from the shop and am looking into gauges to put in the car. I'm looking into at least boost and wideband and am not really wanting a gauge pod on my pillar. Wanting to see how some others have ran their gauges and the locations of them. Haven't been able to really find much on this.

Thanks ahead of time.

I figured this would fit the best in the Forced Induction section since most of the people with gauges have some sort of forced induction.

My set-up is an Auto Meter dual pod w/ Auto Meter Phantom 2 Boost / Fuel Pressure gauge i rele like the look because it matches the factory cluster well... and attached is an Raptor Mini shift light which works like a charm (: Oh yeah a meth light also so i know when its spraying! Will try & snap a pic later on!

Thanks Detoxx. Can the Aeroforce display boost and wideband A/F at the same time or is it limited on the 2 things displayed?

Does anyone have any pics of gauges in the cup holders or console or anything as well?

you could always get a dashlogic and be able to read anything you want on the HUD or the DIC, you can customize it to how you like it, also has audible alerts to notify if something goes sour.

2 things at a time but you can have any two things you want. I usually have AFR and KR but sometimes show boost if I want to see in a certain gear or temp.

SLP Gauge pod with AEM Wide-band / boost gauge. As you see in the photo, boost gauge was not calibrated from factory. Sent it back, calibrated and AEM picked up the costs. Going back in soon. Good fit and finish.

This is your best bet:

No gauges and multi functional....

Here I have

TPS-Timing
AirFuel-E85%



This is on my HUD...you can put what ever you want...

MY DIC

Boost-Iat1-Iat2




Also 0to60 and 60to130 timers




Plus multiple warning you can set up....

Cost is around $300 I believe...

Set up is easy.....

It also controls your NPP which has some cool features

Some nice reading here

If you have Dsteck flex fuel setup you can display your Alcohol % on your dash ...
Set alarms for just about any varibles.....

Cant wait till they make it data log capable....

Does anyone know if you can monitor fuel pressure on the areoforce? I like it but want to monitor FP so may have to go with a pilar and two gauges. Or could always have FP gauges in the engine compartment I guess

Guys I am confused (doesnt take much)

I am looking at my aeroforce since it seems to do what I am looking for boost/FP in one.

But, I have a vendor showing these to pieces in addition too. Are they needed? What is the purpose if the gauges does this already.

******BOOST ADD ON FOR THE AEROFORCE
