Default Interceptor Installed

A few quick pics from camera phone of new guage installed. Took less than an hour. I didn't use the bracket that it came with as the fit was a little off. I simply wrapped electical tape around the base of the guage until it fit snuggly into the pod. Still playing with all of the settings but the thing is really cool. Got it @ marylandspeed.com for $219 shipped. I'm a big fan of blue, hence the LCD color. Gotta start working on cab lights soon!

the gauge runs off of OBDII, it monitors pretty much everything you can think of. minus being a wideband.

Still learning what a bunch of the parameters are. We have a 25' 5th wheel so it was bought for monitoring parameters under load; KR, coolant, oil & trans temps. It does way more than i could ever use it for but I know others will offer suggestions as what to add. i like the fuel status (open vs closed loop) and TCC (locked or unlocked) even though you can feel when its locked. i'm open to suggestions

Wow, the other guys are fast. You can manually monitor over 40 parameters, set it up to scan up to 8 of those and even program it to signal when a certain event happens (like high trans temp or knock retard)
