Left to Right: We installed the new gauge in the A-pillar in place of our AEM analog boost gauge. This means you won’t have to periodically remove the sensor from your exhaust system to perform a calibration procedure. This wideband sensor does not require any “clean air” calibrations. We also installed the included Bosch wideband UEGO sensor in our X-pipe and connected it to Failsafe. We have yet to connect the alarm feature or RPM wires. Since we’re going to be installing an AEM AQ-1 in a later article, we ran the data logging wires under the driver’s side kick panel and sill trim and back to that unit. Right Photo: The failsafe gauge (pictured right) uses a different harness than most AEM digital gauges like our old boost gauge (left) requiring us to wire this new gauge properly before we can use it Left Photo: our new Failsafe gauge takes the place of our old boost gauge. This necessitated the installation and routing of a new harness.

Second is that the gauge harness in this case is different than the company’s typical digital gauges. The first being that this is a mechanical boost gauge, where we were before utilizing boost pressure sensor to feed input to our gauge. Coyote.” However, this installation required some changes that those familiar with AEM’s gauges should note. We already had an AEM boost gauge installed in our 2011 Vortech blown “ Wild E. It also has a data logging functions as well as several other features that we’ll get to in a minute. This gauge incorporates both boost and wideband UEGO readings into one tidy package that still fits in a 2 1/16” gauge housing. AEM Electronics, long known for their accurate gauge, data logging and computer control products sent us one of their Failsafe Wideband and Boost gauges. We recently got our hands on a gauge that may help with just such a scenario. Under these type of circumstances if you were able to spot a problem couldyou adjust quickly enough to accommodate the impending issue?

However, when you’re making a full throttle pass down the dragstrip, or even just trying to merge into rush hour traffic, it’s hard to keep a vigilant watch on those gauges.
