yea, my boy jimmy was talking about getting wideband too but while i do love me some flashy flashy, functions got the small edge.

wait till your kit goes in!
My 24mpg went to 19mpg!
And that's almost all highway and only useing air for passengers as well!

true but i show the car a lot. i dont race it really and im on stock tune with no modifications, if the tC had real oil gauges i would have that extra spot. my need for not haveing a dead battery outwiegh my need to have an eye on my A/F

you guys in vegas are all getting the AEM F/IC? i would love to get this piggyback but concerned bout tuning so i settled with emanage. You guys tune it right and who knows one day i will upgrade (then you will be my guinea pig bwuahahaa).. Good luck with the tune, hopefully someday people can tune it with ease and basemaps available..

Hey guys, are there any 2-guage a-pillar pods besides the carbon fiber one? I have my boost gauge already mounted in my cubby and only need the pillar for wideband a/f and oil pressure. I'd rather not have to re-route the electrical and vacuum lines again.

The only ones I've seen are 3-gauge'rs. They have add-on pods that screw into your existing a-pillar that are 2-gauge ones, but they look horrible.

http://www.zeitronix.com more expensive than gauges, but worth it in my opinion.... I have the ability to datalog with it. Reads AFR, Lamda, Boost, and EGT.

that thing is pretty cool and easier to install, cleaner if your dont want to put extra gauges in your car, still I'll go with gauges since it easier to read them when they're in seperate. And does it the display all infos at once?

yeah, I took that pic too soon... thats the boot up screen. Afterwards it displays all 4 at once on the screen. theres a button on the side you can push and it will show you peak boost and all. You can also plug your laptop into it and watch it on a graph.... pretty neat. The guy I got my turbo from threw it in. I couldn't do the gauge thing in Va. more attention I didn't want.

Yeah, I was gonna get that as well, but I neede oil pressure, so I just went with all 3 AEM.
But now that the AEM wideband can plug into my AEM F/IC, I can log all those on my laptop as well, but the laptop has to be plugged in for logging

That looks neat - i love digital gauges. Still, I don't know about the accuracy. It should be good though.

i did the same thing as you nick last year... I had the epod but it wasnt clean enough of an install. I may be doing 2 more gauges in a CF pillar in the near future.

CYBERDENE GAUGES ARE CRAP!... I had a boost gauge that just suckkked.

im thinking about cutting a hole under the gauges for a little more ventilation... I do miss the center vents, but it could be worse.

hey playinwithfire, your gauges are sick.. i mean SICK! nice job! also i had a suggestion if you hadnt done it already but dr. isotope makes a cubby hole insert that would clean that up a bit.. i think it would look nice. heres a link:

p.s. - if i paid you would you make me one of those gauge holders too???? hahaha
