Lets See Those GAUGES
I dont want to sit here and go through thousands of members galleries for pics of gauge installed on your truck so ....
lets see pics and list what gauges you have.
i need to do work on the front end but thats not a fun thing to spend money on
obviously need :
Boost
Pyro
Tranny temp
what else have you thrown in there?
would it be cheaper to go with the Attitude monitor and add the tranny or just get individual gauges?
Thx !

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v3...t/DSCF2241.jpg . eventually plan to get a boost and tranny temp gauge, as the edge will only read up to 22 psi, because i have it boost-regulated at 22 psi, and it takes it's reading on the other side of the relief valve.
i find this alot more accurate, it reads exact temp, not a needle that moves and can be as much as 40* off. plus it reads exact engine RPM. can keep records of max boost, and max RPM. pretty nifty.

check out this link that i posted when i got my dipricol gauges... page 1 shows them in the daylight... page 3 has pics of them illuminated at night... i like the analog because you can just glace at where the needle is and know if you are getting into the danger zone... you don't have to read the numbers, just look at where the needle is...

There's a 'not real good' shot of my Autometer Sport Comp gauges, pyro, tranny temp and boost. I paid right at $300 for everything and they work awesome, I'd be lost and blown up somewhere without them.

On threads like this, when there stands to be a lot of photos posted, please post links to the pics instead of posting them in the thread text.
