So I am about to place an order to get the dual gauge system from Aeroforce Technology (link below) Does anyone have experience with these interceptors monitors? I would love to monitor everything that is going on with the my new engine transmissionas well as supercharger. Does anyone have this installed with the Weistec Superchargers?

Here is the thread that was started:

Let me know what you guys think and if it is worth it or not.


Thanks

Good luck anyway

How is ur car running by the way

i have been looking into these gauges for a while . seems like they give a lot of helpful info without having to buy a dozen gauges . i might just pull the trigger on the dual gauge setup also .

Same here and since everything is now being finished up on my car I feel like it would be a perfect way to monitor everything. After reviewing things I am contemplating the second gauge, it really just monitors the torque convertor i dont see its purpose am I missing something? What do you think?

The second gauge monitors all the "important" trans parameters. The TCM uses a CAN bus unlike the ECM which uses the older ISO bus, thus the need for two different gauges. The trans gauge will display the following:

Gauge 2 (transmission control module)
1. TCC Slip – Torque Converter Slip
2. TCC Slip DSRD – Torque Converter Desired Slip
3. TCC State – Torque Converter status:1=unlocked, 2=partial lock, 3 = lock
4. Gear Actual – Current transmission gear
5. Torque – torque delivered to transmission
6. Output shaft – transmissoin output shaft speed
7. Gear Target – Transmission target gear, will updated just before shift occurs.
8. RPM
9. Turbine in SPD – engine output shaft speed
10. TCC DC- Torque converter clutch duty cycle
11. Transmission temp
12. Analog 1 – analog input #1
13. Analog 2 – analog input #2

It's up to you whether or not you think these are necessary to monitor. One big benefit of the trans gauge however is that is updates very fast, like up to 20x second. This in turn allows the analog inputs to update this fast as well. On my car I have a wideband sensor connected to the trans gauge so that I can monitor rpm and A/F ratio, as well as record it during a run, and get great resolution due to the high sample rate. The ISO bus is limited to around 2-3 samples/second.

For boosted C63's keep in mind OBD does not read boost so you will need a external sensor.

This doesn't work for our cars george... I talked to them before

I use a Dashdaq with a external boost sensor.

I might be interested also, keep us post it.
