figuring at least a wideband air/fuel should be in the car, 2 1/16" being the common size. Maybe fuel pressure and boost = 3 gauges to mount:eek:

where did you mount what gauges?
I've seen them on pillar, not sure how except each has it's own pod?....any other creative solutions?

thanks for sharing ideas:beer:

Get a Lotec 3 gauge pod color matched and you are good to go!

:help: :help: It's a sickness, disease more like.

I swore after having to completely rebuild (correctly) my Procharged T/A, that I'd leave my sweet Marauder alone.
Can't afford to supercharge it, I said.
I don't know the vehicle well enough to modify it, I said.
It's fast enough like it is, I said....

Same one I ordered. Seeing as were both in the same state, and doing the swap at the same time, we should get together once the builds are finished. There is a 1/8 mile track opening in Windsor sometime soon.

For sure.
I'm in the northwest corner, so Lebanon Valley is about 1.5 hours, Windsor is 1 hour.
If all goes to plan, mine will be ready early April.
I know of a couple other members nearby also.
We'll keep in touch during progress and compare cars when the roads clear!!:beer:

Sounds like a solid plan! I was going to try to have mine ready for the first week of April also, but then I decided I needed a vacation instead. So mid May is the new goal but this is all an early birthday gift to myself. :banana:

I'm debating ordering a 2 in 1 wideband a/f + boost gauge. Digital readout for a/f with led boost gauge around the perimeter. Might get a hair confusing though. I should probably just stick to the "recipe" that works!

From experince trying to just watch boost during WOT, looking at digital a/f in the same gauge would be too much I'd think.
The car is moving so fast, it's difficult to 'watch' any of them, as in during tuning.
I have learned to glance at them constantly, watch for anything odd.

I have the Lotek A pillar 3 pod. Has Speedhut SVT guages. (boost gauge won;t work for some reason).Would like to change them to Autometer so everything matches as soon as I find someone who can do it.

I was going to post a picture of my gauge layout....but you guys have already taken care of that!

BTW: I've since deleted the HUD....Dept of Defense came knocking at my door with questions.....

:cool:

creative solutions for sure. I'm suprised at the few with fuel pressure. It will be in my trio with air/fuel and boost. Thanks for all the response = great set up's!:banana:

All of these gauges installed like this and you didn't do a mirror tap for the radar detector?

I don't even use the V1 anymore....wayyyyy too much laser use in Maryland.
The V1 will tell you there is laser being pointed at you....confirming that you are about to get a ticket.

No OCD....just like to know what my engine & transmission are doing.
Plus it scares the crap out of the Ricers.....:D
