What guages to install?

[bighornram]

What guages are usefull for an 05' 6speed? I'm considering pyro and boost for my new truck. Would any other be usefull?

That should do it. Some put temp sensors in transmission and diff. To each his own.

I'm currently running post-turbo EGT, fuel pressure, oil temp, oil pressure, and boost. Plus %load, IAT, ECT, and throttle % via OBD-II. Eventually I'll add transmission temp, voltage, and maybe rear diff temp.



As Midnight says, to each his own. I'm trying to make my truck like a cross between a locomotive and an A-10.

Would you consider posting more detail of your monitoring system? I. e. software/OS etc.



Thanks

Of course! Here's the thread about it...

I just ordered EGT, Boost and fuel pressure from Autometer. Most people say that on the new trucks you don't need a fuel pressure gauge but I went for it anyway. Hopefully I'll have them by the end of the week and they'll be in the truck by Sunday.
