Hey everyone, my shop is finishing up the install of my Full-Race prostreet kit on to the car and am at a loss of how I want my gauge setup to look like. They recommended doing wideband through AEM and said it would be good to have a boost gauge just in case something was not running right. I did do a Pioneer double din with JDM navi bezel on the dash and am just looking for something with an OEM plus look. I think the Blitz gauges look pretty slick. Please help and thanks in advance!

 

Single 52mm gauge art canbus gauge - AFR, boost, oil pressure, oil temp and water temp in one gauge.

 

With a pioneer double din, you have a few options:
Standalone gauges

Use an iPhone or Android app

Build a single board Android device just to run the app and let it output to your pioneer.

I have them in my A-pillar, but for a factory+ look, putting them on your headhunt is easier.

my AEMNET gauge setup is for sale since I went to a aftermarket cluster. it is an all-in-one that works using a single canbus connection. All of the volume controls still work as well.

 

I run a pillar pod with defi red racer 52mm boost gauge on the top and a aem serial gauge on the bottom. The serial gauge plugs straight into my aem series 2 and can display almost anything but I normally leave it on water temp or wide band air fuel. I also run the zeitronix ethanol constant gauge under my cruise control button.

 

Perrin gauge pods. And no that’s not my real AFR lol car isn’t turned on

 

The last few gauges look great. Simple and the gauges are different so there's no confusion.

But the very busy, small text gauges are like trying to read a text on your phone while driving, they take too much attention. There's a reason "idiot" lights are valuable on cars. For example it's not necessary to know the exact oil pressure or battery voltage or air-fuel ratio etc., just that it's acceptable. Same for an array of identical gauges which look nice in photos but require too much attention when driving.

"Back in the day" we used to loosen the array of 4 or 5 identical gauges in our Brit sports cars and rotate them so the needles pointed straight up when they were where they should be. Easy to spot the our-of-spec condition with a quick scan. Digital gauges look nice but unless then change color don't provide that.
