Default zeitronix? any good

just bought a ati procharger and am now looking for gauges or some type of unit to display my important info.(a/f,boost,etc..) Not really too keen on the round gauges, but what about the zeitronix setup I've seen/read about. Anyone have opinions either way? Anyone have pictures with this set-up? I like the clean, simple, small appearance.

I use it just for datalogging right now . But I plan on adding the LCD display soon . My AEM wideband took a **** and doesnt read any thing under 12.5 to 1 a/f [ normally it would read to 11 to 1 and then go blank ] . The A/F probe Zietronix uses reads well into the 9 to 1 a/f range . The boost gauge is very accurate in vacuum and in boost .I just added the EGT probe .The whole package isnt much more $ than the AEM wideband alone.

I'm using the Zeitronix with EGT, A/F, and boost. I have not data logged with it yet though. I like it a lot. This is my guage setup.

Can you really read this while running full throttle? Seems dangerous.

Yeah, they have an optional boost sensor for it. I run one in my eclipse and my 350z, they work great.

To know when your fixing to melt your motor. EGT is very important!

actually no, can't read it at all when driving close to redline, hard to look at it. i had the aem on my a pillar for a while, but it kept messing up and had to get it replaced twice by aem, finally got tired of their customer service and said f***k it and got the zeitronix. data logging is very cool.
