Starks Posted August 18, 2017 Share Posted August 18, 2017 So does anyone really run gauges in their Legacy? I understand that a Cobb pretty much serves display needs but I'm just not cool with having the unit always on display next to my window. But I also don't want the Leggy looking ricey. Has anyone given something like this a try? Not too prominent, it's subtle, and looks like it flows nicely. http://www.ortizcustompods.com/subaru.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chocmlk Posted August 18, 2017 Share Posted August 18, 2017 I had one of those in my 08 STi and loved it. I am glad to see they make one for the Legacy GT's. I am totally adding this to my wish list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Humble Rumble Posted August 18, 2017 Share Posted August 18, 2017 Wow that's really cool! And yeah, very awesome to see people paying attention to the 5th gen and making specific parts for us. 2012 Legacy 3.6R Build Thread 5th Gen Legacy BM/BR Body Kit Compendium Thread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTEASER Posted August 18, 2017 Share Posted August 18, 2017 Ortiz makes one for just about every car. They use the OEM gauge visor bezel, add the gauge pods and refinish the entire piece. They are very nice, but you have to wait several weeks after ordering because they do everything custom by hand. I have one in my Forester and it's far nicer than the SYM pod available. They are pretty much our only option for gauge pods besides the goofy ET neck/head vent pod by Block8Head. The custom mounted pod I made for the boost gauge in my GT is in my build thread. I also had one sitting around and put one just like it on my GT. Check out http://www.veisystems.com for some cool LED display gauges. I am in the process of installing their D1 series gauges in the Fozz. I will have 3 gauges displaying 6 different monitors, Boost/AFR, coolant/trans temp, oil press/oil temp.

jojorios Posted August 18, 2017 Share Posted August 18, 2017 I have a dual gauge vent pod and it doesn't look too bad. The only thing I'm not happy about is the difference between the AP & the boost gauge. Sometimes they are off by up to 1.2 psi. In the future I may jump into multi sensor gauges since I really don't need a dedicated Boost gauge if it's not going to be close to what the ECU is seeing.

Syndicate Posted August 19, 2017 Share Posted August 19, 2017 ...I picked up a Cravenspeed Belmont today. It's very nice, I plan on having it mounted to my steering column. I wanted to try their dual gauge solution, but I wasn't sure it would fit and it wasn't in stock when I was ready to order. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's the difference between the boost and boost (high resolution) gauge options? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTEASER Posted August 19, 2017 Share Posted August 19, 2017 One is like 1-30 psi only the other 1-99 psi with 3 scales to view it at with varying levels of precision.

Starks Posted September 1, 2017 Author Share Posted September 1, 2017 Welp, just ordered the orbits and an aem boost gauge. I'm going to get the aem wideband too along time the pod gets here. But of course that means I'm going to have to drop the Nameless dp again to get an O2 bung welded in because they filled the order without welding that in (mine was one of the ones that was supposed to have it on). Guess we'll see in 5 weeks Sent from my SM-G935V using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They screwed up and forgot the extra bung so they did this for everyone and ate the return shipping and shipping to resend the it to us with the added bung. http://legacygt.com/forums/showpost.php?p=5266210&postcount=284 GTEASER's 2012 Legacy GT - Sold GTEASER's 2009 XTeaser - Sold GTEASER's 1992 Legacy SS - Sold Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
