Gauges- F250 ??
Just wondering if anyone has the Glow Shift gauges and gauge pod
in their truck? I was thinking about getting a triple pod with an EXT Temp, Boost, and Trans Temp:
Just seeing if anyone had an opinion or ideas or thoughts. Or another kind of gauge or anything?
here is the link,
99-07 Ford Super Duty PowerStroke Quad Custom Gauge Package
of what i was thinking. I think they look pretty good.
Anyone know how hard it is to install them???

You can get TFT and boost digitally (your dash boost is actually ok for a stock truck), the only standalone gauges a 6.0L needs is EGT and fuel pressure. IMO go digital, because ECT/EOT, TFT, and FICM V can all be watched for the cost of a single standalone gauge.
I did standalone Isspro EV2 EGT and fuel press in my dashboard instead of on the column:

And an Edge CTS digital box for all the rest of it:
You can actually expand the Edge CS or CTS to accept sending unit input from EGT and fuel pressure senders, so this box is almost 100% full coverage of normal 6.0L things to watch.
A ScanGauge would be a better "troubleshooting" investment, it does a few things that the Edge CTS doesn't (fan speed, EGR valve position, IPR%), it just isn't as pretty. A lot cheaper too.

A lot of guys have used GlowShift, they're a fine product, I went with the Isspro EV2s because the black-on-black with green backlighting blends them into the dash to the point where several people have asked if the setup is stock. Mine are set to dim with the dash, but if you put yours on the A-pillar I'd set them to dim separately, because you'll be starting at a lot of light right in your eyeline.

I like the look of my Isspro EV2 gauges. They look cleaner to me and are easy to read.
They were already installed on the truck when I bought it, but there are directions on how to install them.
Here are the instructions:http://www.riffraffdiesel.com/mm5/RE...ISSPRO_EV2.pdf
