Default Aero Force

Was wondering if anyone has used the aero force gauge to monitor your Wideband afr, oil and fuel pressure or boost??

just wanted to see what people have used it, and used any of the sensors kits and how they liked them


or if any one has a suggestion on sensors that i should use

I have one never used it for boost. But everything else is pretty legit on it. Mines from my old Gto but it still reads practically everything. Great guage in my oppinion

I have one, I usually watch the knock, and timing on my gauge. I have a wide band and boost gauge separate. I would buy one again it has been helpfull keeping an eye on certain things.

Had the dual setup for awhile now. In the process of going FI so I just got the fuel pressure sensor and hoping to get boost off of the map reading without having to buy that sensor too.

I use the fuel pressure sensor. I got a 5 volt input per the instructions and set the parameters outlined in the instructions. It didn't show proper fuel pressure. I contacted them and the ordered their power supply for it. It still doesn't read the fuel pressure properly. They suggested that I send the sensor in for testing. I put my mechanical gauge back on.

I have 3 of these guages. Two Interceptor and one analogic and they all match. I use the wideband, fuel pressure, and boost(all sensor based) and the use scan for the other parameters.

I had my gauge updated to the latest software. Bought the add on wideband kit but never installed it. A nice feature is the ability to set a built in warning light to go off if reading go out of a certain range. Could save an engine.

I have one and I pipe my MTXL wide band output to it as well as the Aeroforce FP sender. Only complaint is the FP sensor heat soaks and reads artificially low. I have not heard good things from others about their FPG senders either, numerous ones have tanked and they say not to power the FP sender without it's output going to the AF gauge but I have not run into this, I'm tuning with HPT a lot so the AF is not connected then and other than reading low it has not malfunctioned. Other than that it's great to have. I have a 2.5 bar MAP for my SD tune and it reads boost through the ALDL along with everything else. I have my alerts set up so that if I'm over 4# of boost and leaner than 12:1 it triggers.

I bought the fuel pressure sensor for my dual set. Compared to the mechanical gauge I had on my fuel rail it reads about 2-3 psi less. I can live with it, but I question the accuracy of the Aeroforce sending units. The PCM parameters seem to work very well however so overall I'm happy with it. It packs a ton of capability in a small package.

ya iv heard about the same from everyone that it is a good tool to monitor everything the computer reads but not much more than that... so i think that im going to use reg gauges to read everything (wide band AFR, Boost, Fuel Pressure)
