Wideband is always a good idea. Without mine showing some serious rich spikes I wouldn't have known as soon as I did that I was having a bad problem with phantom kr.

I have and love the Aeroforce Interceptor. Quite a bit of information can be read from this Gauge, including wideband o2 from the factory wideband o2 sensor.

dash daq is sick..... oil pressure i think is a must lol since our cars dont read it and just have a switch for when it gets low.

You can add two 5v sensors to the dashdaq, so a 5v pressure sensor will do the trick.

well if you get them cheap yeah they are worth the money. i just dont like the controller box bs you need when you have like 6 gauges lol. nice gauges dont get me wrong but when i planned my whole setup it was like 1200 hahaha. my 3 interceptors do more then the defis do and then i have 2 aems aswell. one i use as a boost controller and the others oil pressure.

defi racer dont use the control box, they are stand alone just like any other electric gauge, and they are cheeper.

52 mm there is a pic in my gallery, not the best, its taken with the gauges off.

they are white led, so they look pretty much stock, which is what i was going for.

I'm running a ZZP triple pillar with AEM Cobalt series 30/30 Mechanical Boost gauge, AEM Cobalt Series WB, and AEM Cobalt Series DPIC (probably will switch this one to something else though).

A Aeroforce and a manual boost gauge.

All one with minor bolt ons needs.

So i have a Interceptor on its way, as well as a triple gauge pillar... I have 2/3 spots filled. What would be a valid gauge to put in the last spot?

Is there any gauge pods available for those of us with an RPD. I know there isn't an A-Pillar gauge pod for RPD + something else but are there any non-custom gauge mounting solutions? I would love to run a mechanical boost gauge in addition to my RPD.

2 interceptors and an Autometer ES series Mech boost gauge (30/30).
boost gauge on the steering column and the interceptors on either side of the factory gauges. feels like a cockpit, plus there less noticable than pillar gauges.

Can you post some pics and some where to buy these pods or are they custom?
