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

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

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

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