So please vote which kind you are running. If you vote other, please post what type of gauges you are running.



TIA

Curious to see if the percentages have changed much... .

Thanks for the link to the previous poll.

Autometer, I have rarely heard of anyone having any problems with them. I like the phantom series the best myself.

 

[kschitoskey]

Westach FP for me; great reputation, awesome customer support from Genos.

 

[RBrunson]

I too run Westach combo guage, and also received good support from Genos. My first guage would only produce 4 psi of boost, no problem they sent me a new one and all is well now.

 

[PAbernathy]

Howdy. How come there is no option to choose "None, yet" or "None, never" on the poll?



Soon, I will probably have Autometer Z for my '01.

Dakota Digital

 

[Cummins Pilot]

My Autometer boost stuck at 14psi then would jump up. No problem, sent it in and another came right back at me.

 

[Cummins4Life]

Isspro EV Pyro & Boost, then a 2-5/8" AM Ultralite transmission temp gauge.

 

[wtfd6]

my autometer z series work great, and easy to install.

PAbernathy: I'm using the pole to see what brand of gauges people are running, not really after who has them and who doesn't just yet.



Thanks for voting/replying everyone

di-pricol is the best match to factory gauges on the 04. most people swear the gauges were installed by dodge. the 3 gauge cubby mount is incredible!!

I sell alot of Di Procol and I have yet to have someone call me with a problem just remember when purchasing gauges do your own research some vendors try to lead you into what they sell .

 

[C. Harlan]

The DiProcols look factory, but also look very generic in my opinion. I go for functionality over cosmetics, but to each their own!

Cobalts

I use Autometer Cobalts

 

[NPloysa]

MGordon, how are your Dakota Digitals? I am looking at possibly using them for my air ride. If you go to the TDR Christmas party I will have to check them out!



As for me, I am running the Blue Chip FMS Premium box with built in boost reading in 1s or 10ths resolution, EGT reading in 1s or 5s resolution, or either boost/EGT in bar graph style, VP44 pulse rate numbers, and engine RPM.

I have all westach units. I think it would be very benificial to have a wiring kit put together that would make a clean and professional installation. I know that when I put my gauges in the biggest part was running wires all over the place. I know that there are many different setups and many different gauges, but surely there is someone somewhere that can do this. Maybe if someone came out with a kit then things may get more standardized.

 

[ndurbin]

TMills: That is kinda of what I am looking at. Selling the gauges, mounts, and doing a wiring harness for the gauges (for power and the lights). Also providing wrirng loom to protect the exposed wires. And maybe adding in things like the drill bit and tap for the EGT probe.



Still just an idea floating around. Right now it just depends on what kind of a deal I can work out on getting the gauges and pods. The wiring and other stuff isn't a problem.
