Where to buy gauge pods in town?

[moose]

Quick question.. I'm looking for a generic 52mm / 2 1/16" pod to mount my boost gauge on the steering column. I checked the usual suspects locally, and all they had were pods for a-pillars. Any suggestions where I could find one in the Atlanta area?

I bought mine at Pep Boyz. I special ordered. It was autometer brand gauge cup. I had to pick it up like 3 days later. I think any major tuner shop will have them in stock.

oh yeah, Madavi Motorsports had them on stock when i went there last time.

Any of those places close to the east side (Stone Mountain / Snellville) area?

Madavi Motorsports is off Jimmy Carter, Knowledge Performance is in Kennesaw, TopSpeed is in Alpheretta, Batlgrounds is in ATL i think, I might be wrong. If that helps any....

Yes, unless BATL has moved, they're in Atlanta, in fact in the business park across from the Red Cross Center by 85 (Exit Amore Dr) -- they're right nextdoor to a my friend's studio.

I went to 3 diff pepboys all they had were POS gauges and POS pods.

I didn't have time to go looking this weekend, but spent some more time looking at interior pics of WRXs. Decided that I really do like the Autometer bezel for two gauges. Figure that can hold EGT and boost gauge. Gonna order it next week. :D

Spring for the Ecutek ECU Data Monitor!!!:bigthumb: :bigthumb:

I've actually looked at that one. Very cool looking device. If it can monitor enough stuff I might well go for that later down the road.

i have it too and am very happy with it

It's the bomb I love mine as well!!!

I really like the ecutek delta dash display that milo and mike have but I didnt know about it when I got my gauges.

Maybe I'll upgrade down the road when I've got more money, but until then my cheap autometers work.

[married05gt]

$100.00 cheap gauges $800.00 ecutec dash mount
hmmmmmmmmm

for me the cheap ones although when I road in milos car it was pretty damn sweet

I am thinking about the DIN mount as i am getting ready to change out the head unit in my car.

[miloman]

nice think bout the ecutek display is that u can monitor parameters that u cant even buy gauges for... plus it displays EXACTLY what the ecu sees

mmm humm.....:bowdown:

[longfury]

Is it really worth the near 700 bucks though? What can it display that you can't get gauges for? I have seriously thought about it and i am going to have an open DIN when i change head units. I dunno if i wann just put a pocket there or one of the ECUtek displays.

[GTscoob]

just to bump this, MPaone on NASIOC (a local ATL guy I believe) is selling one of the autometer gauge pods http://forums.nasioc.com/forums/showthread.php?p=8957079#post8957079

knock correction, advance multiplier, ignition timing advance, wastegate duty cycle, injector duty cycle, etc... i dont think u can buy gauges for some of these
