  • Auto Meter pillar gauges

    Auto meter came out and installed a new prototype pillar and gauges (boost and fuel pressure) in my car yesterday. Extemely satified with the install and operation. You can see pics of the entire install at Auto Meter Products, Inc. | Facebook

        As a recent accident victim, I wonder if it would hamper air bag deployment?

            Wiring was pretty simple. They show you which circuit to use to prevent voltage drop. The pod will be modified to fit better although it's good now. We're going to try different gauges to better match the stock backlight color next week.

                Looks good Russ. So what is your HP now? Are you going to Amboy this Sunday?

                  Thanks Ted. We dyno'd last night but I found out the SCT programmer that came with the kit does'nt allow for leaning out the program. We hit 500 hp but I expect more. Have a GM tuner coming out next week. No plans for Sunday. What's in Amboy and what time?

                    Huge car show about 800 cars last year. Starts at 6am-11am to register and awards at 3pm. Had a great time last year and bringing the wife this time. It's called Depot Days and geos on all weekend, sidewalk sales, carnival, and 50/50 raffle which was over 16,000 last year. Very much like Sycamore.

                      Wifes going to see my daughter at U of I so I get to babysit the dogs. I may try to drive down later in the day though.

                          The replacement pillar uses the factory safety straps to make sure the pillar blows down rather than at the driver. This was certainly a concern in development but the engineering behind it is sound. I would not worry about it hindering or airbag deployment.

                          Thanks again to Russ for working with us on this project. Your help is greatly appreciated!

                              Any way to hydrocarbon the case? I would like to do an orange hydrocarbon on the gauge pod.
