IFR table doesn't go above 0kpa vacuum as far as I remember. May be different in newer OS's though, I've only worked on E40's. Or who knows.. it may interpolate it for boost or something for all I know

Injector flow rate is one of the things I always log. On my car, it reads about 96 lb/hr at ~10 psi of boost, and about 108 lb/hr at an idle or light cruise. So at least on an E38, it does appear to have an affect on fueling.

I do have the enhanced OS, but don't use any of the SD features. Really just wanted it for the extended fan tables and a couple other things.
I just looked at a log from my roll race a couple months ago. Injector flow rate moves around a little bit under steady WOT. Makes sense as my boost fluctuates a little. Pretty steady though, as I have a PD blower. I'm assuming this is from the MAP sensor data, but I could be totally wrong.

I like it.. how does the pod install? Does it pop on or screw on or tape on or what?

The SLP pod just sticks on with 3M style tape. Didn't have to drill any holes either with an electrical gauge. Any 2 1/6" gauge should work with it, but mechanical gauges will require a hole being drilled in the plastic instrument cluster trim bezel.
As I mentioned to another member that PM'd me, the fit and finish on the pod is okay, but not fantastic. I could have spent some time filing the edges to make it cleaner where it meets the air vent and along the edge of the HUD buttons. You can probably see in my pic that where it meets the edge near the buttons, the curve doesn't quite match. As particular as I am with most things, it doesn't bother me. Probably an easy fix though.

I have that poor fitting slp pod as well. Lol

Not a fan of aeroforce gauges at all, even though I have one.

that looks pretty awesome, i have boost, wideband and fuel pressure guage and am not a fan of them all on the pillar at all so this is a good option. I'd never seen that SLP setup or the aeroforce guages but I do like the dashlogic (although customer service is terrible)

As StreetK14 has shown and stated - the SLP pod is not the best fitting pod mold - BUT ... It's functional enough. I hate pillar pods (screams RICE) and needed somewhere to mount the AEM boost/wideband gauge. I plan to add Dash Logic to the car as well. Seems to be a lot better option than the "prone to fail at any given moment" that is AeroForce.
