You don't need anything extra to read boost as the gauge will read it from the OBD port. You do need the fuel pressure sensor to read fuel pressure as that is not supported by the OBD port.
If you want to read AFR , then you will need a wideband sensor.
The same gauge will read the fuel pressure and AFR from the external sensors.

Hope that makes sense.

Here is a picture of the aeroforce fuel pressure sensor installed in my car. It is then wired to the gauge.

They do not make this easy anymore...

I am missing the days of the autometer boost and FP....

Wait, you need the wide band sensor for A/F?

And, so you tied the fuel pressure fitting into your feed line instead of at the rail? What fitting did you use? Thanks

I tried the Areoforce guage and didn't like how small the numbers on it were, not easy to read when you are running through the gears I found. I decided to go with a triple guage pod so I could watch AFR, fuel pressure, and boost.

Aeroforce Interceptor gauges in a dual gauge pod that is molded into a factory a-pillar (Double D Mods). The top gauge shows fuel pressure and air fuel ratio (each requires a separate sender available through Aeroforce). The lower gauge is currently showing coolant temperature and oil temperature.


Fuel pressure sender installed on the end of the schraeder valve at the end of the driver's side fuel rail. I used a valve removal tool to remove the core and used an adapter to connect the sensor to the fuel rail (-4AN fuel rail adapter from Glow Shift for a clean install). There is a heat resistant wire loom over the fuel pressure sender's wiring harness.



A bung for the wide band oxygen sensor was welded just upstream of the catalytic converter on the driver's side. This picture is taken looking up at the catalytic converter which is just below the exhaust manifold. Once the catalytic converter is removed there is a flat spot to drill a hole and weld a bung. Be sure to angle the bung just a bit so that the sensor is pointed slightly down. When this picture was taken I had not yet run the wiring and just zip tied it out of the way after protecting the wiring connector with a bag.

The wiring for the fuel pressure sensor and the wide band oxygen sensor goes through the firewall just below the cable for the hood release. I removed the driver's side dead pedal and drilled a hole below the cable release wire and later sealed the hole with silicone. A&A has instructions online, which I loosely followed (thanks!). The hole will end up somewhere behind the windshield wiper reservoir and you will never see it, but using a coat hanger I was able to fish all of the wires through and run them neatly in the engine bay along some other wiring / brake lines.

The major benefit of the Aeroforce gauges is being able to read and clear diagnostic codes and also to output any reading that is available on the OBD port, this includes misfires and boost as well as several other items. The lights can also be set up as a warning based on parameters set by the user.

Yes, you need a wideband for A/F. I use a Zietronix Z3. Works perfectly and great reputation for quality.

With the eforce, there is no room on the rails for anything. I just teed it into the line. I don't have the part number handy. It and airoquip fitting.

Agree. I cant look at gauges when pushing hard. I like warning lights if something not right.

Check out double d mods. They make custom fiberglass center console pieces with gauge holes wherever u want them. Ordered mine on oct1. Came in the mail yesterday. At paint shop now.

Anyone know if there is a difference in an older Aeroforce vs. the newer ones?

from my last Z06

That's a killer layout. Wow.

It looks like you had the face plate made to cover the gauge itself. How hard was that to do? Super clean install

spdmn75

may do something similar with the current Z. Also speedo look out of place?

XCELER8

What would the cost to put gauges in the speedo? My TT installer has never done it

spdmn75

I did it myself so it's was the cost of the gauges, zr1 cluster and the overlay kit

XCELER8

LMAO your a little far away to do mine. My installer said he can most likely do it but its expensive..lol

The guys with the areoforce interceptor gauge and monitoring boost, did you buy their boost pressure 2 bar kit?
