Aeroforce interceptor question for turbo install - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Cool AirZ28 · 04-05-2017, 09:35 AM

About to install twin turbo setup and i had a question on gauges I have read older thread reviews of the aeroforce interceptor gauges where they would white wash out in direct sunlight or have bad visibility. I have a convertible and would like to know if this issue has been resolved or not with the newer models. Thanks

I have a aeroforce interceptor in my turbo car. I got the red color option. The gauge never failed me and i park it outside and live basically in a desert. The gauge also has the ability to brighten or dim the display also allows for inverting of colors red to black or black to red.

I think what type of pod's and how they are positioned will have a greater effect on glaring of the gauge face. google ortiz custom pods. I had them make me a A pillar triple pod. Fitment is OEM perfect. The A pillar in the camaro is soo FAT you cannot see the gauges from outside of the car unless you deliberately peek inside.

It's if you leave it in sunlight. The gauges display "washes". It still is visible but not as much. It only happens when you let the car so for an extended period of time.

The only issue I have with mine is reading it with polarized lenses.......

Thanks Bay Area, Old dudeand Camaro dreams. I have the Ortiz speedo bezel pod for the gauges (like the one in the pic). I just want to make sure I won't be getting white washing with my car being a vert. It's going to see plenty of sun during the daytime. That's a lot of money to be spending for something that may have problems.
