Resolved Autometer Airdrive gauges

[aaronth777]

Hello all, I'm looking into getting gauges for my gsx. I've looked at many options, and first decided on Glowshift just for the look of it. But then I've read on here that they aren't the most accurate so I decided against it. I've heard only good things about Autometer though, so I'll be going with them. They have a newer line of gauges called Airdrive, and wanted to see if anybody had any experience with them. Basically you plug the main unit into the OBDII port and it gathers data from the ECU, and then transmits that data to the gauges wirelessly via built-in wifi. So there would be no wiring involved, just simply plug and play.

I have a few concerns about them though. How accurate are the factory sensors such as coolant temperature and oil pressure? Most aftermarket gauges come with new sensors, but the Airdrive system utilizes the factory sensors. Also do you think lag would be an issue since it transmits the data wirelessly?

There is the problem. Ecu doesn't monitor most of what you would want so airdrive is worthless.

Yeah that's what I was afraid of. Thanks for the advice, I decided against it. Just wanted to make sure before I bought a different set of gauges since the airdrive is so easy to set up.
