Gauge ???

Does anyone know of a good in cab fuel pressure gauge?
Is there a stand alone egt gauge?
I have the SG2 but truck is not equipped to read fuel pressure.

I went with the Edge Insight EGT add-on. I considered it for the fuel pressure but it is a bit spendy. Then I looked at the ford match fuel pressure from autometer which would match my boost gauge above the rear view mirror and that was also spendy. So then I did nothing.

Another vote for the Isspro EV2 gauges. I have the EGT & fuel psi.

why are my pictures a little thumbnail all of a sudden?

My only advice is use an electric sender and gauge. A blown line or hose can ruin a interior/carpet. A big no no if it is a customer.

X2 what Iaff said, I like the Edge Insight line with the EAS starter kit as additional pressure sensors, temp sensors and or back-up camera can be added without cutting into the factory wiring harness and the install is clean looking. The only down side is the expense.

The only problem with the Edge system is you are limited to the number of PID's you can monitor. I tried setting up the different screens with different PID's and got a warning. Edge CS confirmed that there is a limit. No deal breaker, but I found nothing mentioned in the install manual.

The audible alerts are great and I use the EGT probe with the Edge.

I was wandering about that--the cts you can add backup camera.
Just looked at a price (was probably just the standard and no EAS kit) but it wan't too bad--about the same as buying two gauges and the goodies to install.
I like the part about not cutting into the wiring harness.
yall make it hard on a man to make a decision lol.

You can have an alarm for a pid that isn't displayed and it will pop up that one.

I installed a single A-pillar digital gauge which displays 2 values. In my case I got fuel pressure and volts (I didn't think I needed EGT at that time).
I was able to retain the grab handle which is what I really wanted...

Here is a link to a pressure & temp dual-gauge (not cheap, but easier than 2 gauges and the bigger gauge pod)
Pressure and Temperature Gauge DG 213

I bought an auto meter single a-pillar pod and installed it w/o any issues. I have pics posted on here somewhere.. can't find them now..


Here is the link to my install thread (first post has the pictures attached)

No, the pod is called an "under dash mount"....and is located under the radio/HVAC control area, above the transmission hump.

Here's a better picture....excuse the purple things hanging....they end up there everytime I start the motor.

Got it--I like that mount--that's were I've been getting hung up and not knowing what to do was the mounting of gauges--that one looks perfect.

I bet somebody has a slight chill about now
