I want to mount my gauge or gauges if i buy more. I am unsure where is best, can someone please post some pics of theirs to help me out and to show me the tidyest way

thanks

umm if ur talking bout those small ones for volts, pressure, boost, etc., i have a 2 gauge pod a pillar thingie if u want i can sell it to u for 23 bucks+shipping. it looks just like the 3 pod pillar i have...cept it only has 2 slots...duh. =p

Here's how I mounted mine:

convinient location. nicely done. looks very clean. im looking to get the 3 guage pod for the pillar. one for my nitrous press, the other for the a/f ratio, and boost.

Those a/f guages are worthless. You may want to buy a wideband O2 guage instead.

i agree, cause i have one...its a cool light show tho and a place holder in my 3 pillar pod

not when you are running a turbo theyre not!

Oh yea, why don't you school me boy? Please tell me how an air/fuel guage with a narrow band O2 sensor is going to provide any meaningful information above 300rpms?

GT Four with upped boost will school you

lol, you do you know the differece between a narrow band and a wide band o2 sensor?

[dan4]

i do does he?

[creis]

I would put then on the pillar.... it just seems like the best place.

I molded a 2 guage pod to my friends a pillar a wile ago (his turbo is not installed yet so the pod is not either else I would post pics of it) but I think thats the best way to go, mold it so that it looks perfect and does not look added.

Thanks for the informative post. I am sure you chose this reply because you could not back up your incorrect claims. BTW, people rely on the information that people post in this forum. So, when you suggest that people should buy a crappy a/f guage when they have a turbo application, you are actually encouaraging people to throw their money away. Moral of the story: don't give advice if you don't know what you're talking about.

trust me, jay knows his stuff.

if you know how a narrow band gauge works, then you would know that it can not be used for any type of tuning.

dont really want this post getting heated ppl!

Mounted gauge in the air vent next to steering wheel (right hand side on mine). Looks good

True but it still provides the ECU with a reading that can be watched and therefore make sure your engine doesnt run too lean which is my main concern

I will let you take this one Lagos because I am done here. Buy em books and buy em books....sigh.

[JoKeRkId613]

Well I'll be the one to say that I honestly don't know crap about mechanics. I'm running nitrous and I figure the air/fuel gauge would tell me when I'm running lean, when to spray or not. Is this right? Or would I need a wideband O2 gauge? To my understanding, the A/F gauge is narrwoband. I don't know what that means. But which one's the wideband O2 gauge, which I'm guessing is better for nitrous. I just thought the little light thing on the A/F gauge was cool. Lol.
