moddingbug Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 http://www.ortizcustompods.com/subaru.html?m this is what I was actually looking at. Appears to be identical Yep, AutoCityImports states it's from Ortiz Custom Pods too! I think I'll buy this one. Looks nice & clean, utilizes the OEM trim for perfect fit! Excited!

Zee199969 Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 I was thinking about going the vent pod route... but a single goes for $85 and dual is already $125. I think I like the gauge cluster pod layout more... the enabling continues My "Build" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brandon.mol Posted July 4, 2015 Share Posted July 4, 2015 I find the scangauge 2 to be quite useful. It can display anything that your ECU reports, including custom stuff if you know the memory address to grab it. It can replace some of the more basic gauges, like voltage, water, arit emps, open/closed loop, etc. Its also handy for doing 0-60 times, 1/4 mi times, etc. I've not tried it yet, but you can extract anything in the CANSF messages, including O2 sensor data, fuel trim, A/F ratios, and commanded A/F.

brandon.mol Posted July 5, 2015 Share Posted July 5, 2015 Update: I have it displaying the following now as well: O2 bank 1, sensor 2 0-99% AFR, bank 1 Commanded AFR Short term fuel trim Long term fuel trim Fuel tank level, in percent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brandon.mol Posted July 6, 2015 Share Posted July 6, 2015 Of a scanGauge 2? They aren't pretty.

brandon.mol Posted July 6, 2015 Share Posted July 6, 2015 It plugs into your OBD2 port, FYI, so you can't have it + AP connected at once, unless you have some port duplicating jiggery-pokery if such a thing exists. Not sure if you are an AP-plugged-in-always kind of guy. I do find this thing nifty with all the functions they have. And they turn on and off with the car, powered off the OBD2 port. Backlight colour and brightness is highly customizable. I have 2 of them.. one in each vehicle. I find the distance to empty and fuel level readings EXTREMELY accurate.. like... down to 1% of fuel (once calibrated). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
s2baru Posted July 6, 2015 Author Share Posted July 6, 2015 Normally I do have the AP always in or an OBD dongle to run the Torque App. I need to do the trade in for the v3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTEASER Posted July 6, 2015 Share Posted July 6, 2015 Splitting the ECU signal to dual OBDII ports is technically possible, but others have tried it and apparently it degrades the signal enough that it causes inaccurate data display.

Then need to find say AFR & ??? Combo http://www.innovatemotorsports.com/products/psb1.php The MTX dual gauge is pretty good. I was going to get that but decided against it because it doesn't dim enough at night. I dont want it to be a distraction. Also the gauge uses a serial port for configuration, a bit out dated. If you don't care about these "flaws", then I think it's a solid gauge to have! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swannee225 Posted July 21, 2015 Share Posted July 21, 2015 What is everyones take on Prosport gauges. I have 2. I haven't installed them yet cause one of the faces has a big scratch in it. I have the 52mm premium oil pressure and boost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTEASER Posted July 21, 2015 Share Posted July 21, 2015 Personally I wouldnt bother. They are definitely on the inexpensive end of the spectrum. Heard a lot of random failure stories.

MTBwrench Posted July 21, 2015 Share Posted July 21, 2015 I'll agree too. I know some people that have had great luck with them, but I know way more people that haven't. My personal favorite at the moment is PLX devices.

silentsnow31802 Posted July 21, 2015 Share Posted July 21, 2015 I use the prosport gauges because they match the stock ones. I have not had much time with them but my afr gauge is about .2 off from what my lc1 is data logging. I assume the prosport is the one that is off but I can't confirm that. I do however dislike the external button. It's a pain trying to run that wire from the back to the outside of the gauge. I do like the limited wiring to the back of the gauge though. My mtx devices had huge amounts of wiring coming out the back of them and that made it hard to mount them.

Swannee225 Posted July 21, 2015 Share Posted July 21, 2015 I guess I will install them for the time being. Until I can save up for some Defi gauges. Better having some idea of what's going on than no idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
