Yeah whatever Mike!


Hexx's 384.1whp Vortech'd G > Mike's 370whp Vortech'd G

 

I have an 05 and my TPMS light is always on too after the Volks... don't even notice it.

 

ha, tire pressure gauge, now thats funny

here's my Zeitronix.

It seems accurate to me. When I log my utec they're pretty close.
An A/F guage is almost moot, as a guage to try & watch.
I say almost because in most cases if it shoots up fast it's already too late. What's nice about it is if your a/f runs consistently high or low it'll alert you early enough to get things checked out.

I like mine alot. Has a/f boost & egt.

here's some picttures...

tire pressure, hahahahhahahaha, funnyDOMO

 

Just curious, how do you compare Utec and Zeitronix A/F? As far as I know Utec log don't display A/f unless you are using the Tuner.

 

Question: I tried searching, and google.com, but what is "LAMBDA".

Also, that Zeitronix guage is pretty sweet...measures A/F, EGT, and Boost...

 

oh, ya, when Sharif was tuning my car a while back...
and on a few dyno days here in GSO

lambda is a +/- % of a/f:

ie:

13.2 ~ 0.86
14.7 = 1.00
15.3 ~ 1.04

basically another(older) way to represent a/f

 

^^^thanks, Bailey.

 

pwned

 

I agree. If you're driving in the city.

If you're on the track you may want to glance at the gauges for a split second, but never long enough to actually sit there and look at them, I would assume if you're tracking and know what you're doing, you should be able to read all your gauges with the quickest glance you can give them. Now, if you have them on the A-Pillar, good luck on the track. If you're right, then I guess the professional driver that told me this info just is wrong and doesn't know what he is talking about. He wasn't the only one either, I have about 2 other people with first hand experience with tracking many many times, and they all hate the A-pillar gauges.

Plus, isn't the point of this thread for a sleeper look? Gauges anywhere that can seen without looking hard kind of get rid of that look. The only other location I would recommend for gauges are where the navi goes and below that where the ash tray is, but thats some $$$$ to get something fabricated. I know for one, I wouldn'y want some gauges in my face when I'm trying to concentrate 100% on a track.

 

Like I said it is all user preference and usage. For tracking then yes it can be a problem but not for Drag. The best way to put gauges with a sleeper look is by the navi or by the clock. Anything above the dash is good but that cost $$$$. If the OP want a sleeper look then I suggest to spend $$$ coz there is no point of having it by the glove compartment if you can't monitor it without endangering himself (Street Driving). I have the A-Pillar and still have problem taking a glance coz I still need to look at the road and RPM all at the same time.

Can't really argue here coz everyone has their own purpose and reason for using gauges, it is just my reason on having one is to keep an eye on my car as much as I can. I would like to have it by the Nav or dash but I don't want to spend $$$ on fabrication. All my reasoning are for Street Driving coz that's were 90% of the car are being used here, some will never even see the track.

Un-Subscribing.

 

i have my guages mounted to the a-pillar, but without the huge a-pillar pod. you would be amazed how much of your vision that pod takes away. hopefully i will be tracking the car in the fall, and i can let people know if my vision is obscured with the guages on the pillar. on the street i can look through them when i'm in a left handed turn.

 

I think this looks ok...

 

^^^ That's pretty much what I was talking about. My ideal spot for gauges.

 

Looks like Steve's old setup.

 

^that's cuz it is!
