Getting ready to pull the trigger on a gauge. Is this overkill or are there other/better options. Still new to all of this and I appreciate everyone's input.

What all does it monitor?

 

Boost and afr among other options. Still trying to comprehend it all myself.

I like that it monitors both.
What are you thinking for mounting options?

 

The Flex pod or The Belmont. Still undecided. But mostlikey the flex pod just in case I decide to add another gauge later on down the road.
Found the gauge on eBay for under $320 shipped from Ventura. I like that it's a all in one gauge and comes with a Solenoid controller kit.

I'm going with an Innovate LC-2 and a pair of Speedhut gauges.

 

For mine I'm going to use an Autometer 2 gauge plate mounted in the pocket below the A/C controls.

I considered the pillar pods and the craven option, but I don't plan on staring at the a/f and boost gauges all of the time. I also think having them down in that pocket will draw less attention from passers-by while parked. Another benefit to having them low is that in the event I ever get stopped for speeding, I feel that a host of extra gauges all over the place increases the odds of a citation versus getting a warning. Depends on the officer, I guess.

 

I'd be interested as well.

 

Here are the gauges I ended up ordering.



This is the bracket I'm going to use.

You have to customize them to your liking. For the Toyota logos you have to first create an account. Then you just google whatever logo you want and upload it to the Speedhut site. I tried out a bunch of different logos like Tacoma, TRD etc. but in the end I liked the Toyota emblem the best.

 

The AFR gauge does not include the wideband o2 and controller. I ordered that from Amazon.

I had no idea yours was blown....until you pulled out ahead of me, at Walmart and I saw the Supercharged decal on your tailgate.

 

Installing SC check.

For some reason, all this gauge talk is confusing the hell out of me

 

@big_jarv As you can see, all of the cash you save me on the supercharger has been soaked up by more parts from @TIM.TRDSparks , URD pulley, URD fuel pump upgrade kit, Innovate LC-2 and gauges.

Thanks, bro. I guess. LMAO.

 

for those interested in a 3.4 blower.... someone should scoop this up I think. Not mine/don't know the guy. Also don't know much about the 3.4 kits and/or if it is missing anything.

Seems like a good deal though

 

Going to get the auto meter wideband afr and boost gauge along with the flex pod. The gauges are about 279 for both, they have a mfg rebate until the end of the month. I want to get the pulley but feel that I should get the fuel pump at same time, not ready for that yet. Maybe in a few months after I recover from this expenditure haha

 

Loginfailed, you can get the boost gauge without the vacuum. They look awesome though!

 

Or is a solenoid controller only used on a turbo charger application? Maybe this isnt the right gauge for me. Any insight would be great

 

I have an armored bumper, lift, and other go-slow accessories. Lol. That whine though, it's addictive like hell.

Lol. One gauge in my opinion is absolutely necessary: an Air-Fuel Ratio gauge. It will indicate whether or not your running lean or rich, which in turn will allow you to make the necessary adjustments to keep your truck in good reliable condition.
