Tuners

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?

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?

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.
