Default Can someone help find this

Sup guys just wanted to know where i could get these gauges from, i dont have any real mods for it so for that reason i am asking if it would be stupid to put them in my truck. My mods are exhaust, fipk, and wait4me tune. So let me know what you think and where they sell this at, a site if possible. Thanks everyone.

Those appear to be autometer pro comp gauges in an autometer gauge pod. Bottom appears to be a wide band Air Fuel gauge.

I got the autometer pod for my truck. There's nothing wrong with keeping track of your tranny temps, fuel pressure, coolant temp (since the stock gauge is very inaccurate by design) even if you don't have many mods. I would pass on the a/f gauge unless you have a wideband sensor to hook to it. It will just flash back and forth a lot and not really tell you anything.

Check Summit Racing, that's where I got all my stuff. Here's a link to start on, you can filter your search down from here.

They are AutoMeter. But the bottom gauge is the new DPIC.

Think of the stock narrow band O2's as on/off switches. If the a/f mix is lean, the switch is off, if it is rich, the switch is on. When you are cruising around, the mix goes rich/lean/rich/lean a bunch of times a second. If you hook a a/f gauge up to that, all you will see is Lean indication when you are coasting, Rich indication when you are at WOT, and it will flash back and forth all the time when you are crusing. It won't tell you much, and IMO would be annoying.

A wideband will tell you how rich or lean you are. It is a continuous, rather than discrete reading. So when you are cruising, instead of seeing on/off/on/off (or high/low/high/low), you will see an actual constant reading. I think an a/f gauge on a narrow band O2 would be worthless, but if you get a wideband it would definitely be worthwhile.
