Talking 3-Gauge Pillar and Gauges Installed! Pics!

I just had my Cobalt Addiction gauge pillar installed along with the Aeroforce Interceptor and the AEM UEGO Wideband.

It turned out great. I love the Aeroforce. Right now I monitor knock and horsepower.
I just saw 305 horsepower in 3rd gear around 6,500rpms.
I don't know how accurate that is and I know it's reading crank hp.

What do you guys think? I know it's nothing you haven't seen before.
I am going to do the new screw fix with the painted plastic cap this weekend.

The top pod had to be modified to fit the AEM wideband. The pod was a little too small.
Sorry about the bad quality pics.

Thanks bro. The guys at Jannetty are awsome. I mainly talked to Kris.

The price was steep man. $400.00 out the door. They do great work though.
They even had to modify the top pod because the AEM is a big gauge.

That Innovative wideband you got is super sexy. I like that bad boy.

ROFL about the drywall screw. What can I say i'm top of the line all the way...lol
I'm going to do that new fix with the little plastic cover this weekend.

Thanks, I can't wait to get it installed. I have been staring at it ever since I got home from work. I need a 3 pillar pod ASAP

I hear you about waiting and waiting. I have had these gauges since January.

Good luck with everything. It's pillar time.

I was going to order a dual gauge, but there is no way I would have a screw showing like that. It pisses me off they couldn't make the hole for the factory retainer screw.

No it's cool man, Cobalt Addiction included the fix for that.

I'm doing it this weekend. It will look like this and here is the thread.

Yeah bro 0 knock. Very happy with that. The AFR sits around 13.

The Aeroforce said 305 hp in 3rd gear around 6,500rpm. Interesting.........

So we can tweak her at the track May 12th??

13? did you put it after the cat? should be in the low 12's... hmmm might have to retune a little. but as long as your getting 0 KR, it's not the worst thing

You know I didn't look. I told Kris before the CAT. I'm sure it's before the CAT.

Yeah we can tweak a little. It was very very cold when I got on it so at lunch i'll go get on it and see what it says.

ok... see if you can get a nice 3rd gear pull in and let me know what you see. since these cars "adjust" themselves over time and change some parts of the tune on their own

OK just got on her. I'm seeing a pretty consistant 12.2 and 0 knock

I guess last night was a little too cold and the Balt wanted more air. 12.2 is better than 13

looks good man....

my only change would be to move the wideband down to the middle spot...

I've ran mine in both the top and middle spots and i find that the middle spot is easyer to see when your focused in the middle of a pull....

just a thought...looks good tho man!!!!!

Yeah I was actually thinking that too. I think I might do that.

I like the idea of the biggest gauge in the middle. I have to do the screw fix Sunday so I might switch the two.
