If you could have matched the interior colors it would have been top notch. Still like the clean look...Good job, do those gauges work or are they all show and no go?

Having exposed gauges and pods screams out to cops "PULL ME OVER AND LOOK UNDER MY HOOD! YOUR SURE TO FIND SOMETHING YOU CAN WRITE ME A TICKET FOR!"

The more info you can get on what your engine is doing the better. But if your using it as a daily driver and the cops in your town are on a quota like here then stay away from visible gauges and pods.

Plus every unworthy ricer civic will try to get a piece then think your a sissy because you dont want to waste your time racing some POS honda.

I ate a hopped up Cobra last night. Now thats worthy.
The look on the guys face .

thanks for the input.....yes they work....notice the numbers on the wideband,also, ive eaten some cars too....badass ones, and you are right about the civics..they get allmad and gun it when you wont race them, so what i do is downshift it and gun it for one split second....when he notices my tires burning at 65, he doesnt try anymore...

Christmas tree lights = bunch of gauges all over the car in most inconvenient out-of-sight places. Yeah!

I have AEM UEGO controller (gauge-less). The two gauges you see there are the only ones I have. First gauge is AEM Serial gauge which allows me to display a lot of different information from AEM EMS. I can setup the limits and switch between different data. The second one is AEM Truboost boost controller.
