View Full Version : Autometer Pods BooSSted 06-28-2006, 01:47 PM Hey Aaron, Any word on these yet? player_1 06-28-2006, 01:49 PM yah apparently, they are going to be offereing them in the factory colour as well. at least that's what it says on PT Tuning site SS33 06-28-2006, 01:57 PM ^^That would be nice. Anyone know if they're going to accomodate side curtains? Or are we just SOL with them? I'd hate to see what happens when they go off inside a pillar with nowhere to go, lol sscobalt06 06-28-2006, 02:01 PM Are they going to come in 2 and 3 pods and does anyone know if they will be recessed like the stock pillar. juststickit124 06-28-2006, 02:05 PM there's already a thread like about this, http://www.cobaltss.net/forums//showthread.php?t=23241 hope it helps You can call autometer directly, thats how I got my part numbers and the info. Didn't ask about color though. They are very friendly call em up. Thanks. juststickit124 06-28-2006, 02:07 PM Are they going to come in 2 and 3 pods and does anyone know if they will be recessed like the stock pillar. I don't think I've ever seen a recessed autometer pillar, they will probably look just like all the other ones. But if you get a little creative and are good with molding, you can cut out the pods, and reversed them in the pillar to give it that recessed look. I'm sure it's way more work then it's worth though. they come in 2 and 3 pods. juststickit124 06-28-2006, 02:08 PM ^^That would be nice. Anyone know if they're going to accomodate side curtains? Or are we just SOL with them? I'd hate to see what happens when they go off inside a pillar with nowhere to go, lol There's a thread somewhere about this. The air bags are above the doors, not in the actual pillar. People have already taken them out to inspect and made some fiberglass pods. There's also a picture of a wrecked cobalt, and the interior shot show the pillar only moved 1/2 inch at the very top just to let the airbag deploy. I see it being safe.

Yeah I saw that when you posted the link. I've never pulled mine apart, but assumed the bags came through the circular covers at the top of the A and C pillars. SO you're saying they don't come through those holes, but rather between the headliner and pillar? I mean these pods are a total replacement pillar aren't they? juststickit124 06-28-2006, 02:21 PM Yeah I saw that when you posted the link.

SO you're saying they don't come through those holes, but rather between the headliner and pillar? I mean these pods are a total replacement pillar aren't they? just found these real fast. It doesn't seem to be an issue at all. Those holes are just covers for the pillar screw, and just say Airbag on them to let you know it's equipped with that feature. I haven't tried it yet so I can't gaurentee it, but you might want to PM the members posting the how to in the threads I listed. didn't say whether they had side airbags or not. But i'm %95 sure it's no problem. http://www.cobaltss.net/forums/showthread.php?t=21674&highlight=pillar+removal http://www.cobaltss.net/forums/showthread.php?t=22220&highlight=PILLAR sneaky 06-28-2006, 02:22 PM Does anyone got pictures yet? even spy shots of them? SS33 06-28-2006, 02:25 PM ^^Yeah thanks man, I actually found those right after you made that post, lol. Good to know the bag isn't actually in there. Now I can hardwire my radar detector without worrying about getting a face full of airbag, lol BooSSted 06-28-2006, 02:27 PM there's already a thread like about this, http://www.cobaltss.net/forums//showthread.php?t=23241 hope it helps You can call autometer directly, thats how I got my part numbers and the info.

The part number has been released for over a month now but that doesn't help anything if they aren't available yet. juststickit124 06-28-2006, 02:38 PM I already know the prices and part numbers.

I'd take it for that cheap. Woodyr007 07-04-2006, 02:11 AM Talked to Aaron today he said they should be in within 2 weeks Rangerondubz 07-04-2006, 02:22 AM My local perf shop can get them Floridas Finest SS 07-05-2006, 01:51 AM yeah i just want to see pix TurboTechRacing 07-05-2006, 03:33 AM Autometer said they would be shipping the middle of July. We will have the dual pod for 64.99 and the tripple for 69.99. We might also run a special price on autometer gauges at the same time. player_1 07-05-2006, 09:36 AM are you only getting the black ones or are you getting some of the factory colour aswell? SS_SC_Cobalt 07-05-2006, 09:50 AM are you only getting the black ones or are you getting some of the factory colour aswell? ^^^^^*2:twothumbs How about a pic from autometer? TurboTechRacing 07-05-2006, 11:18 AM We have not saw any of these here, we currently don't have any pictures, we will all have to wait until they are actually shipping. Only thing they told us was prices and the estimated shipping date of 2 weeks. Mercury 07-05-2006, 11:20 AM I can't wait! Pods are so neat! Floridas Finest SS 07-06-2006, 03:03 AM Merc, is there a thread you don't read? l Sh1ft l 07-09-2006, 07:21 PM Hmm.. So what gauges should I get to fill these pods? I'm going to be getting the 3. JCswoosher2 07-09-2006, 07:32 PM i am waiting on my pod through Summit. and i got the Boost, A/F ratio and the DPIC gauge which i am excited about most SS_SC_Cobalt 07-09-2006, 10:31 PM Hmm.. So what gauges should I get to fill these pods? I'm going to be getting the 3. got 2 already myself....Stock Boost and Interceptor, thinking on the last one..electronic oil pressure or FP:twothumbs CobaltSS313 07-09-2006, 11:30 PM yah im also waiting for these pods to come in so i can buy one. SS33 07-10-2006, 12:59 PM got 2 already myself....Stock Boost and Interceptor, thinking on the last one..electronic oil pressure or FP:twothumbs I'd say yes on the first two, and wideband for the third for those who plan on upping the boost cosiderably SS_SC_Cobalt 07-10-2006, 02:30 PM I'd say yes on the first two, and wideband for the third for those who plan on upping the boost cosiderably well already hooking up the 5v lead to the aux input on the interceptor so dont need that ;) SS33 07-10-2006, 02:34 PM Tru, but I personally wouldn't trust it for anything past a 2.8" pulley I'd rather pay a little more for true wideband and peace of mind Especially for those running HP tuners. Interceptor to watch KR and IAT2 temps, wideband for the fuel ratios and we really don't even need dynos anymore SS_SC_Cobalt 07-10-2006, 02:56 PM Tru, but I personally wouldn't trust it for anything past a 2.8" pulley I'd rather pay a little more for true wideband and peace of mind Especially for those running HP tuners. Interceptor to watch KR and IAT2 temps, wideband for the fuel ratios and we really don't even need dynos anymore why not? You can connect any wideband sensor to the aux and get the readouts there, all the autometer gauge does is read out what the sensors are telling it ;) same read outs using the same 5v sensor :) I do like the autometer but If I can save some trouble and extra expense ;) LC-1 Wideband Controller ;):twothumbs SS33 07-10-2006, 03:06 PM ^^^I agree completely, as long as you actually run a true wideband sensor. Otherwise all you get is a light show I don't think I've ever seen a wideband sensor for sale without the gage though. I wonder how much of that price tag is the gage SS_SC_Cobalt 07-10-2006, 03:11 PM ^^^I agree completely, as long as you actually run a true wideband sensor.

Seems like a nice unit, but for $200 you really aren't saving alot of money compared to others on the market. Awesome to know we have that option though.

Mungla 07-11-2006, 10:46 AM My question is, how does the pillar look? Is the molding around the pods decent? Also, on Ptuning's website, they state that Autometer pillars slip over the existing factory pillar. How would this work with our already existing gauge? I'm assuming this Autometer isn't a slip-over? SS_SC_Cobalt 07-11-2006, 11:01 AM I have to get my gauges wired and installed before i can get any pics. just take some shots of the pillar itself....:twothumbs PuSha050 07-13-2006, 03:55 PM well considering the AEM uego is 350-400$ ya your saving a bit ;) if you pay that much for the aem uego then u deserve a smack on the head:nono: lol but seriously tho the price has come down drastically. u can get them for around $250 now SS33 07-13-2006, 04:06 PM ^^Thats what I was thinking TurboTechRacing 07-13-2006, 04:27 PM These are now shipping at Autometer. The dual is 64.99 and the tripple is 69.99 + Shipping Would anyone be interested in these and the AEM wideband gauge, and//or the autometer gauges (all lines)? We will get these pods added online very soon. SS33 07-13-2006, 04:58 PM I imagine you could do very well offering packages for the pods w/ gauges. After I get my stage kit I will be looking for triple with AEM wideband and the interceptor SS_SC_Cobalt 07-13-2006, 05:24 PM if you pay that much for the aem uego then u deserve a smack on the head:nono: lol but seriously tho the price has come down drastically. u can get them for around $250 now still you would be saving $50-75 bux, anyhow I see no need for another gauge when I can use the interceptor, plus I like the fact that the Lc is all digital...:twothumbs TurboTechRacing 07-13-2006, 07:29 PM The two pods are now added on www.TurboTechRacing.com We were able to mark them less than what we stated above! Dual is $59.68 Tripple is $62.19 These will ship from Autometer, expect it to take about 3-5 business days to ship. They are making these to order and that is why it takes time to ship. Anyone interested in gauges by autometer or AEM. PM us your request we will email you back prices and availablility. Just send us the part number from autometer and a item description. Here is a link to the two pods: http://www.turbotechracing.com/productcart/pc/viewCat_h.asp?idCategory=5623 BooSSted 07-15-2006, 03:22 AM Awesome. have you seen these yet Aaron? I am wondering, are they just pods that stick onto the stock pillar or are they a full pillar replacement? Also are we still going to be able to make use of the stock guage pod? TurboTechRacing 07-15-2006, 03:52 AM For the price, we are assuming it is a full pillar replacement. We have yet to see one, as it takes around 4 weeks to get on a stock order for us. This is why we are having Autometer ship one to our customers as it takes about a week. Being this you would not use the stock one, you should be able to use the stock gauge in the new pod. player_1 07-15-2006, 06:29 PM is it only going to be in black or are you getting any of the Tan or stock colour? TurboTechRacing 07-18-2006, 07:20 PM Any interest on these or the Autometer gauges? We would like to run a Group Buy on them (gauges) SS_SC_Cobalt 07-18-2006, 07:27 PM I know I would like pics first.... BooSSted 07-19-2006, 01:25 AM I could be interested in the AEM A/F if you can put together a group price. TurboTechRacing 07-19-2006, 01:41 AM PM or email us the Part Number, i will see what i can do on a price now and then a group purchase price. Serpico 07-19-2006, 01:42 AM OH GOOD GOD! :lol: http://www.clublexus.com/gallery/data/500/ttiwwop.gif http://www.clublexus.com/gallery/data/500/ttiwwop.gif http://www.clublexus.com/gallery/data/500/ttiwwop.gif < ditto TurboTechRacing 07-20-2006, 08:37 PM We are currently working on adding the entire line of autometer gauges. If you want to know the price of a gauge email us. You can figure a good 10% below summitracing.com and free shipping if the order of gauges is over $200. When the gauges are listed on www.TurboTechRacing.com you can take 10% off most of the gauges, being a cobaltss.net member... Email us and we can get you a exact price.

Aaron, quick question, Just ordered a pod last night as I've had one back ordered from PTuning for 2 weeks, but they said it could be a while before they would be able to get me one, so I cancelled my order. Am I still looking at the one week time frame for shipping, or has that changed? I ordered an AEM UEGO off ya which is getting delivered today and my Interceptor is on my dining room table, so I guess you could say I'm chomping at the bit to get the pod. Thanks greatly, in advance! SS33 07-27-2006, 02:10 PM Hey TTR, do you guys have the Aeroforce over there?
