I've seen and felt the quality of this pod. I give it two thumbs up. I'm not a guage pod guy, heck I even sold my prototype Lotek pod for nothing, but if I was I'd buy one of these in a heartbeat.

hmm... that RX8 looks REALLY familiar!!! I can say from first hand experience the quality and fit of this pod. its close but doesnt actually touch the A-Pillar. and yes, im looking into a wideband to put there... only issue is, the pod is 60mm..

I think there are some product demo vids on Autoblog about it at SEMA last year...
Honestly in person they look a just a lil cheesy but if a christmas tree interior doesn't bother you then they re fine...

interesting. you can design your own gauge face so it's not really christmas treey unless you want it to be. the sensor data screen would actually be useful.

Hello everyone... My name is Ben,

I'm from mazda6club,also the one who produce vent-pod for the speed6 community.

i have a lot of member on here and the RX7 comunity email me about the vent pod...

Since i'm not a vendor and those pod are all made by hand and they not mass produce ..

So if anyone here are interested please feel free to pm me for more detail and availability

I have sold the prototype for one of the member on here and it was 60mm pod. but now i do make the 52mm to meet the demand...

The new pod i made have better view and angle : here is the final product i made last week and test fitted at mazda dealer... enjoy and feel free to comment:
