I just purchased the dual interceptors (plus the sensor kit for AFR) for when I get my x-charger in. Still not sure if I want to do the vent pods or a-pillar. Both I think look great. I'm thinking about going a little different if I go for the vents and putting both in the drivers side vents, one on each end of the wheel.

On my fbody I have aeroforce guages and they work perffectly. If you are running FI, you should have at minimum a wideband (to prevent leaning out), a boost guauge (to prevent overboosting) and possibly a fuel pressure guage. These are the guages I would use. Also, if you are running nitrous, you should have a nitrous pressure guage.

I thought about putting them on either side of the wheel. The only thing with putting the Roush gauge pods like that is that you have to look from one side to the other to read them. With the center vents they are both right in the line of sight with a quick glance.

That's a real good point too.
Think I'm going for the vent pods though

Can you install the gauges prior to the supercharger and have them functional or do they need to hook into the charger itself? Also, how difficult is it to install them? I'm no electrician so would it be worth the cost to have a locl performance shop install them?

Anyone one see this type of gauge?

I went to the website but it now takes you to GoDaddy.com.

I got my interceptors in a couple days ago and had them installed in less than 5 minutes. Fell in love with them on the spot. Decided to go with the vent pods just like in that video. You can install them and have them functional without having the supercharger. That's what I did. Got the first half of my x-charger in the mail today, gauges are already installed.
