Default Gauges installed

I finally got the right gauge pod in today and installed my gauges. I put in electronic full sweep autometer oil pressure and fuel pressure gauges and an autometer wideband O2 gauge. All are the C2 series. The install took about 1.5 hours only cause I had to wait for the paint to dry on the piller (painted it to match the interior). Fuel pressure is dead on and the oil pressure is higher then I would like but within limits. The Air/Fuel ratio at idle and cruise are pretty good and hovering around 14.7 but at WOT is is very rich with the sniper tune I made as the starter tune. Between 11 and 12.5 (kinda hard to watch and drive). Tomorrow I will spend the day tuning the car with my buddy (I need him to hold the laptop, start the data log and watch the AFR). Then If the rain holds out tomorrow night I will be going to the track.

I will post pics and times tomorrow.

Oh and the gauges are really fun to watch
