New Era. But it's taking forever since I'm getting it shipped to Canada.

Yea, just ordered from them, and got the adapter from Speed Inc., my pillar pods are full. I'll probably install it when I get back.

Mine just came in. Delivery was relatively quick considering it came to Canada.

What terrible timing though. I put the car away for the winter this morning, and the gauge came in 10 minutes ago

I have to send mine back to get it re flashed, didn't know they came programmed with either metric or imperial, mine reads KPH & I want it MPH.
But it seems to have the latest firmware you have to send it back which is the only downside.

I just got mine the other day. I gotta install it yet. I got the "template" from 6LE for the gauge to go in the "cubbyhole" by the shifter.

Great video!!

Damn, I didn't know they had two different ones. Good to know.

the only problem that all the scanners have is that they have all of these settings to chose from but you don't have any idea if the readings are to high or low. you don't know here the readings should be like knock, manifold pressure, etc. sorry for reawaking old thread

Older thread, but does anybody know if the trans temp is pretty accurate (A4)? Ever compared it to a trans gauge tapped into the transmission? I want something to moniter tranny temp and I might as well just buy this guage since it seems to do it all.

never used a trans gauge tapped to the trans but i do have the aeroforce gauge and it seems like it reads it very accurate. between 130-175

installed mine and the power will not stay on. so i ran a switched 12v from my fuse box and it came on and off with the car and worked perfectly.........
now today, i got to drive down the road to show my buddy my new toy and the thing comes on and displays: the logo, then "actuator active", the it gives me my two categorys but no numbers or amounts for temp,volts,ect..... stays on for like 2 seconds then goes off. what am i missing??? gauge is messed up you think

I would say that something's stranger as soon as you said it wouldn't stay on after being connected.

i got it fixed now. what happened was my setting weren't applicable for my car. If the gauge doesn't recognize the info you are wanting it to recognize it will shut itself off. i fixed this by turning the gauge back on and immediately pressing the left and right button to pull up the MENU screen. From there i went to set up and changed all my categories: fuel% trans temp, volts, ect.... something that i had originally selected couldnt be found by my gauge so it shut itself down.

these things are awesome. you can control you low and hi fans with the push of a button as well as a ton of other functions.
here a couple pics of mine install if anyone is wondering what red font and brushed bezzel look like. also i have the qauges light dimmer on med. enjoy

Ahh nice, something more to the list.. Someone was talking about "shift light" does it function as a shift light too?

Edit: After a little research: it does function as a shift light, because the lights go whenever the parameters have been exceeded, the manufactur claims due to the responsivness of the unit it works well. *in case anyone else was wondering*
