i currently (6.4) use a tuner to monitor my egt, coolant temp, trans temp, oil temp.

The 2017 is supposed to have more monitor capabilities. Can anybody confirm these 4 can be monitored on the 8"display? If not, what are you guys using?

 

I hope they can. My base model 2014 Ram monitors all those except egts.

 

Certainly not a tuner. Some may chance warranty denial. The warranty has specific exclusions including the changing of any engine parameters through the use of aftermarket tuning devices. Considering the cost of major repair I would not even chance the possibility of denial by adding a tuner, plus the temptation to tweak things just a little would be too great.

Many of the functions listed might be available with the Forscan system. I found several gauges I never realized were possible, boost in particular, on my 7.3 by use of the OBDll Bluetooth reader to my Android phone. Scary Big Brother watching when I opened up the "logs" and found maps of the routes I had taken with color coded speed overlayed on my routes and time stamps as well: there were several other logs I did not get to yet, I am thinking complete realtime documentation could be beneficial in a court of law, or NOT!

 

EGT is not an available gauge on the 8" cluster, there are 3 or 4 EGT sensors available though to the Forscan software.

 

Have you heard anything about stealth performance modules?

 

I saw this edge insight monitor available on stage 3 motorsports website. It says...
Monitoring Device Only: this device is only for vehicle monitoring and it does not include performance tunes nor can it accept custom tunes.

thank you sir. Exactly what I was looking for.

 

Let us know how you like it and all the options if you get one. It looks pretty slick in the pictures.

 

If you are looking for monitoring only, get a tablet or IOS and android device,a OBD Link MX adapter and the $5 forscan app.
