kerns I did it all in about 8hrs minus installing the gauges that took an hour or so the next day.

turbo 2.8

I have a boost gauge and Aero force interceptor gauge , on the aero force u can monitor 2 parameters at the same time , i have mine set for a/f and a.i.t. a/f is important to monitor , dont want to run lean . and helps with tuning . check out the Aero force web site , it actually does a lot !

I am in the same exact situation. I keep going back and forth back and forth on what gauges Im going to get. I've been telling myself to order gauges every day this week but I cant decide. I know I want boost for sure but.......I really cant decide if fuel pressure or wideband are really worth it with the limited usability. I guess you could say the same about boost but I kinda throw the wideband/fuel pressure in the same category. I dont really see how you're at any more risk of losing fuel pressure or having a fuel pressure related problem just because you're supercharged so what usability does it have? If you lose fuel pressure then something major is going on, I feel like I would notice an issue like that just as soon as if I didnt have the gauge. Same with wideband, what in the world if gonna change your A/F enough after the tune to make it worth spending the money on? I feel like its just something that i'll stare at that will never change or really provide me anything. Nothing normal at all should be changing the A/F aside from cruising where it will be random and varying anyways. I'm coming from a street stang/DD point of view here BTW. Oil pressure is definitely useless to me because I dont have to tap the oil pan or change the oil system with a positive displacement SC.

Cant decide with Auto meter gauge(s) I want either. I'm thinking the Z-series for a black gauge and not sure on the white faced gauge i'm thinking phantom or something. Cant decide if white faced or black faced gauges would be better for my charcoal interior. Decisions............

I am now considering going to Pro-Dyno because when I called Fastlane Motorsports twice earlier this year about a month apart and they never returned my phone call when I left my info. The impression I got was that they really didnt seem interested because I wasnt paying them to put the SC on. I could be totally wrong it could have just been honestly forgotten I guess. The other thing is that Pro-Dyno is 3 hours away from me and i'm certainly not driving 3 hours on a un-tuned SC setup. Which means id have to have it trailored there which makes it that much more expensive. I might give them one more shot via email and/or phone if they don't seem interested screw it.

Dan from pro dyno said he would email me a tune to get me to the dyno. but i may use my sniper

Yeah even under those circumstances I dont want to drive 3 hours. Fastlane said they'd throw me a tune to get me there too but Benson is a lot closer to me than Charlotte lol.

if you do decide to get an a/f gauge check ot ebay, a seller, with good feedback, has some Innovate Widebands on there for $187. pretty cheap IMO

Does that kit come with the gauge? Its $199 without the gauge and $329 for the kit with the gauge(ouch) from innovative.

Looks like its the sensors and gauge from what i can tell.

My local tuner recommended a boost gauge and a fuel pressure gauge for sure. A wideband A/F gauge is not needed by him to tune, and as he put it 'when it shows you something is wrong, you are in trouble anyways'.

I like the idea of 2 gauges only, as then I only need a 2 gauge pillar pod.
