Moar Gauges!!!!

[Bass_Waves]

Ok i want to add a couple more gauges to my ss/sc 'balt. I noticed that the RPD is a 09+ option only. Would be cool to adapt it on mines. I've played with it before and its got very nice options.

My thing is how hard is it to wire up a couple of gauges. I want a temp gauge for coolant. Oil temp gauge. Would be nice to see my battery voltage here and there. Dunno what else to put on. Maybe air/fuel ratio gauge. I seen a triple gauge pod from zzp in the beige color like mines. And custom bezel gauge pods which are cool. But how hard is it to wire em up

it's not hard at all. positive wires can be tapped into a fuse and the negative wire obviously just to a piece of metal bolted down. i would suggest getting a wideband and an interceptor gauge with zzp's triple pod

 

[Bass_Waves]

Wideband does the air/fuel ratio ans the interceptor is like an obd scanner? With lots of other functions am guessing

Yup. Interceptor tells you everything your computer is reading. It has a wideband function if you spend extra money for the sensor and adapter. But to be honest, I like seeing my afrs at all times and I'd like to know what else is going on with everything else at the same time

BTW, if you get an Interceptor make sure you get the right model.

what signature?

 

[Bass_Waves]

Wat model do I get?

The aeroforce that works with your ecu. Go to their website and it will tell you which one you need. Otherwise zzp, ottp or modern performance has it too

I'm not too big into the gauge pods so I went with the PLX multigauges. you can hook up to 4 different sensor modules to the same single display.

I kinda have it down packed to how I want them to look. My gauge cluster bezel will hold 2 gauges. I am most likely leaving the stock boost gauge in tact. Def a aeroforce and coolant temp gauge on cluster. Can't stand the going thru info to get coolant temp. I do it though but it becomes a hassle sometimes. Never know I may run 5 gauges in the car. Overkill maybe but I like to know how the car is doing all the time. As in oil pressure. Coolant temp. Voltage. To me that's key stuff to keep a look at closely. Im like that just cause I work on trucks and that is stuff I monitor on a daily basis on road tests and engine running tests

my dic is always on coolant, i don't even know how many miles are on my car lol

 

[Bass_Waves]

im constantly scrolling thru it. I got 13Xxx miles . Lol. But I like to see fuel mpg avg. Im pretty sure it'd dead wrong all the time. Says I get 21 but feels like 15.

mine says i get 45 when i'm cruising. avg is 28.8 right now. i don't understand it at all because i'm boosted. says i should get 500 miles to the tank. haven't driven it nice enough to know how far i can go on a tank or my mpg

 

[Bass_Waves]

Mines says 221 on a tank. Feels way less than that. Im on a gms2 supercharger aswell
