You sure that's right, 189.00? I haven't seen that price on a dual pod, even the quad pods just go for 62.00. If your seeing 189.00 on the sticker, then someone has 100% markup. Depends on how intricate the computer is with your instrument cluster. I was thinking about doing an all custom cluster and instead of the tachometer(rpm gauge) I was going to put a quad gauge that had volt, water temp. oil pressure, and fuel. I would change out the speedo with one that matched the quad gauge and then I would add egt, intake temperature, boost, and tranny temp positioned like the factory fuel, water temp, oil pressure, and tranny temp are on an 06 psd. Unfortunately, as I have found out, the electronics are too involved with the factory cluster to do that without having good chances of adverse effects, so in your case it depends on how involved the electronics are on your truck.

ITS RIGHT...
I have purchased my last Two performance packages from them and their prices can't be beat. I just purchased for my 07 a stage iii pack which i choose the sct strat, s&b intake, and Motoblue 4" exhuast $699 and $189 for EGT and boost with your choice of pillar or overhead console mount. Free shipping everything to my door for $1050. I have done the research and i promise you it can't be beat.

I don't know what I was thinking, but it was 530 in the mornin, I'll try to use that as an excuse. Actually I have noticed in the gauges that I was looking at, Amazon had some a little bit cheaper then RPM Outlet. Now I haven't used Amazon for automotive stuff and not knowing what series of gauges and brand of gauges your going with I couldn't compare price, but I do know that for single gauge buys they are cheaper, I didn't take a look at group gauge buys, but it doesn't hurt to look.

i just ordered my quad pod and 4 autometer cobalt2 gauges .....trans temp, pyro, boost, oil psi.....all full sweep and all electric..........with pillar painted and gauges wired and assembled in the pod........for $650 called 5 places, Dfuser one of this sites sponsers was the cheapest ,,,also got a polished intake elbow for $145, not accufab its the other brand out there, cant think of the name. when u start getting into full sweep and all electric guages they get expensive.... but they will look nice at night with the blue leds...............now just got to get thru my fear of drilling and tapping the exhaust manifold, without breaking something.
