Default Aeroforce Gauge Cat Temp Readings Please

I have a supercharger from RIPP, and the Long tube headers. I am reading what I think are high Cat temps. I hope the Aeroforce guages that I have are not reading accurately. If anyone has the aeroforce gauges...will you please report back to me on Cat temps for each bank at normal driving conditions and at WOT.

If there is someone with Ripp Long Tube Headers and the Aeroforce Gauges, well that would be even better.

If there is someone with the supercharger, headers and the gauges, I would be very happy!

Going to Moab and trying to decide if I should pull the belt for the SC and run without it.

Quick feedback would be greatly appreciated!!

I have the Aeroforce but not the RIPP, so I can't help with temp comparisons. I am sure you have thought of this, but if not, pull the belt and run it with the stock belt around town to get a baseline on temps with out the SC forcing air.

Ya, thanks, that was going to be my project for Thursday...ugh...the day before Moab....somehow in between tuning up RV, finishing jeep and packing, oh and I gotta do my stinking taxes. haha.

Well, curious to see what your temp readings are if you get a chance. Thanks!! In fact, that may work....If I get your temp readings, then I run it stock, that'll at least tell me if my gauges are correctly pulling the data. The other strange thing is that the gauges are showing bank 1 and bank 2 as the exact same reading all the time. Not sure if the JK reads them separate or not. Thanks!

Brother, I failed to mention .....I am overseas at the moment and the JK is nowhere near me. There is no possible way I would remember that particular temp, it is not one of the parameters I have set on my constant display. It was in my scan mode, but I have no clue. The other problem is that there are only a handful of us here on the forum that run that gauge. I think the price/sticker shock scares everyone off, but you know the deal, it's capabilites outweighs it's price by hundreds of dollars. Sorry my friend, I am of no use
