A/F Gauge question

I have auto meter elite series oil pressure, boost pressure and fuel pressure gauges and am looking for a simple air to fuel gauge. Is the AEM fail safe the way to go? I've seen the interceptor gauge but I want something with a more readable display. Advice is appreciated. Car is a 2012 Shelby

Innovate Motorsports LC-2 controller with a DB-2 digital gauge is what I have in all my cars:

You'll find it on e-Bay for much cheaper than buying direct. I've recently seen it as little as $160.

I actually really like that one and it may be the one I go with. Thank you.

I had one in my nitrous SRT8 Jeep. Very small and I two way tape it to the center of Speedo. Looked good and very accurate. Innovate

Why not look at Auto Meter. I have the Cobalt series, nice display, easy to read and excellent customer service.

No love for the AEM failsafe?

I have looked into getting an AEM failsafe myself but did not want to spend that much as of yet. Still researching them.

Seems pretty sweet that they data log for 3 hours. $275.99 on amazon. I'm trying to decide between that and the aeroforce interceptor. I'm just not a big fan of the interceptor display, but it does do more like show IATs, knock etc.

Why not pick up a used n gauge? Show up to 6 parameters at once and can datalog 25+ parameters at the touch of a button.

I'm pretty sure I've seen JPC racing singing the praises of that fail safe gauge, might be able to get more info from their posts (might have been on Facebook, can't remember)

I was actually thinking about that as well. The AEM has a pretty sweet fail safe features but idk how difficult it is to make it work correctly.

I have an aeroforce gauge but also want a standalone wideband gauge for better display. The aeroforce does not work well with sunlight.

What face do you have on the Aeeroforce? I have the black/white and have no problems seeing the numbers. Mine is on the A pillar.

I have the black face...red lighting and it is in the vent pod.

Yeah that could be a problem. I had a hard time seeing the speedo until I changed to a white face plate instrument panel.

I put an Innovate LC2 in my 3v and hooked it up to display in the aeroforce. I can see everything perfectly and I was very impressed with the quality from the LC2 kit. I would recommend that over the AEM, although their failsafe gauge is fairly decent too. In the Shelby I just run an Aeroforce and pull up the OEM wideband displays.

You can log any wideband through SCT as long as it have a 0-5v out and you have the FireWire cable.

I have an NGK AFX in my car

LC2 user here, running fine after 2 years of abuse. I put an inline switch to turn it off sometimes. just on the ground wire.
