Hi all. After a twin gauge pod. Xcite seem to look good. Not too keen on the SS. Phoon stuff looks real good but tripple. Phoon will you be doing twins? Then there is FPV but wont fit cobalt gauges I think.

I basically love the look and am only really keen on the boost gauge side of things and will fill the other hole with whatever (AFR/oil etc).

Which have people gone with and fits the best looking factory. I have seen the threads involving the above and think the xcite is the closest so far but one didnt look like it fitted properly.

Thanks

Up in the air atm about whether I will do a double pod or not, need to get a ROI for the Tripod before I even consider and by then, most guys will probably have pods on there cars so I suspect that people wouldnt want to spend more money on changing over from either Miss Alys or SS just because I bring one out. As far as which one between miss Aly's or SS, both do the job. My personal preference of these two units would be the Miss Aly's as I dont like the screws in the top of the SS, but if that doesnt bother you, well you have a choice to make.

SS ones look :stirthepot:, Pole position is the go but if your after a 2 pods though then I would go Xcite or FPV if you can afford/justify the cost.

p.s The Autometer cobalts do fit the FPV guage pods and with some clever work you can even fit the outer caps to the guages...Do a search for threads started by the forum member Headsex...He done this install with cobalts in his car and did a write up if that's the path you want to take.

I agree phoon's product looks awesome. Pictures don't really do it justice you really need to see it in the flesh. I'll be getting one of the 3 pod gauge holders soon.

The Tripod is on my wish list too, nothing else in the after market comes close.

Cheers for the comments guys, the TRIPODS were designed to be more factory fit and quality than anything else on the market, with the extra pod, but as I said, if I was going for a 2 gauge unit, it would be the Miss Aly unit over the ss unit.

Cheers

What would be a good choice for the 3rd gauge though??? I know boost and oil pressure are a must, and I've heard that the air/fuel is just a glorified disco light.

I love the look of the tripod but I cant think of a 3rd practical gauge that's needed.
