From The Driver Seat
The Interceptor can display nearly 30 engine and vehicle parameters, including: RPM, MPH, intake air temp (post intercooler), ambient air temp (pre-intercooler), coolant temp, exhaust gas temperature (PCM Calculated), transmission temp, manifold vacuum/boost displayed in PSI, fuel temp, battery voltage, battery temp, injector pulse width, injector duty cycle, barometric pressure, ignition advance, fuel status (open/closed loop), calculated net horsepower, engine load, transmission slip, current transmission gear, torque converter lockup status, brake pressure, brake booster travel, steering angle, lateral G's, yaw, fuel economy (instantaneous and average), plus eleven more functions we've never even heard of and two configurable analog inputs. Each gauge can select as many of the above parameters as you'd like, and the gauge can be set to scroll through the parameters, two at a time, at programmable intervals. Each parameter can also be set to give a warning light when the gauge detects an abnormal reading. The gauges even offer a customizable start-up display that will show one of several vehicle or engine emblems.
For the gauge mount, the carbon-fiber film you see applied is custom. SoCal Diesel offers black anodized, polished aluminum, and brushed aluminum finishes. We were pleased with the construction and the tilt towards the driver made for easy reading of the gauges. With the gauges set flush into the console the installation appeared custom and seamless, a great upgrade for any truck.
