No that is the single. The Dual kit is so you can run 2 aeroforce gauges off the one OBD 2. The gauge allows you to look at 2 parameters at one time. You can also have it cycle through preselected parameters on a time basis. It also allows you to set an led light to come on if a parameter goes out of range.

If you buy the dual set up you get 2 gauges and can look at 4 peices of info at one time. To me it wasnt worth it.

The gauge will also record your 0-60 time 1/8 and 1/4 mile as well as compute HP. I havent done it yet but I will soon.

All in all I really like the gauge and recommend it.

Sounds like a winner to me. I guess its worth the money considering all the parameters that you can track. How involved is the install?

Not bad, you just plug it into the OBD 2 and wire in power. Install directions are sufficient. I also recommend the SOS gauge pod. Fits perfect and is good quality (they start with OEM A pillars). Much better than that autometer stuff.

MustangGT0405- Thanks for the pics and advice, you saved me some cash in the long run because I would have went with a cheaper gauge until I found one of these....then I would've chunked the first ones!!

I'd like to get a programmable shift light.
Really like the Roush vent pod option.





So I could install any digital gauge 2-1/16"?
How hard would it be to install?
Fishing through the dash and connecting to tach wires? Thanks.

the aeroforce gauge simply plugs into the obd2 port under the dash. there's no other wires to run.

It will display a gazillion things and it reads and clears trouble codes just like a tuner. Did I mention it records 0-60 and 1/4 mile times?

Is it accurate? If its not directly connected somehow how does it know the intake temp and coolant temp?
