Aeroforce Interceptor Gauges ?
 

I'm thinking about getting Dual Interceptor gauges so i can display 4 things at once. Now the questions is what would be the 4 most important things to monitor- especially if you have a tune?

1.
2.
3.
4.

I know everyone will have a different opinion and ideas so lets hear them!

I monitor the following with mine:

1. Air Fuel
2. Intake Air
3. Coolant Temp
4. MPH (just because I don't like the analog gauge)

I have a single Interceptor gauge in my car. :)

I have the auto-trans, and was hoping to monitor Trans Temp. and Actual Gear, but those are unfortunately NOT available. I don't know if Trans Temp. works for the Manual. I've emailed Aeroforce to try to get some help, but so far no results.

I have been monitoring my IAT, and frankly it's not needed. With the stock air box, the IAT is always less than +5 from Ambient when you're moving more than about 40 mph. :nice:

I have the LED Annunciator set to +230 Coolant Temp., and I monitor various other values, depending on what I'm doing.

interesting...Well i dont have a auto and manual you cant read the temp on it.

I dont have the stock airbox

1. A/F Bank 1
2. A/F Bank 2
3. MPH (****s and giggles)
4. RPM (****s and giggles)

Once I get the blower on, I will change the bottom values to Boost and Fuel Pressure.

Sweet so once i get a blower having 4 things to monitor will come in handy

I want to go with the BOSS gauge pod and put 2 of these in and then a single one just for boost eventually down the road.

I was thinking

1. A/F bank 1
2. A/F bank 2
3. Oil pressure
4. Fuel Pressure

3rd gauge boost

Keep in mind that you can cycle through up to 8 (IIRC) parameters on each gauge and non-essential things like boost can easily be added to one of your Aeroforce gauges with an analog 2-bar MAP sensor, instead of adding a seperate gauge. I usually display boost/fuel pressure and IATs/coolant, but change it up once and while.

^^ correct so instead of a 3rd gauge for boost what would you put in the extra spot in my 3 pod gauge holder?

do you have any pics of your gauges?

also what color combo do you think will match the '11 interor the best? i was thinking white face with white lcd and black numbers

Here's mine

^^nice... looking to do the samething just on top of the dash like the BOSS.

How do you run a dual gauge setup? Thought they plugged in to the Obd port

They provide you with an OBD II splitter cable when you order a dual setup. It's one cable that plugs into the OBD II port and then splits further down the line.

splitter connector to allow for 2 devices on the OBD

You got tree'd. :catfight:

Just when I thought I was done for a little while with mods I see this... Very nice! :hail: Is that the guage pod from AM?

Sorry for my ignorance, but would monitoring air/fuel ratio be beneficial with CAI and tune?

I got it direct from Speed of Sound. Alan is a good buddy of mine, and he'll have my business for life!

I think it'd be smart to monitor A/F on an NA setup because of all these #8 piston issues. You can see if you're running lean.

However, this will average the A/F ratios across the entire bank, so it'd still be hard hard to determine if #8 is leaning out.

I'm thinking of monitoring AFR with my CAI and tune, just to have a visual of how "safe" I am.

Good to know. Thanks. I think I'm going to consider these now.

How hard was it to install the pod?

These gauges are straight cash!!! Did they come with the mounting harware? S197GT?

Nope. No mounting hardware.

I got a Speed of Sound pillar, and these fit with friction.
