Gauges are in!

Whew, it was a long day yesterday. Got it all done, really turned out nice. Made a couple little mistakes. The biggest one on the thermocouple. I didn't read far enough ahead and it said don't tap all the way through the manifold, only tap a couple threads so the flange tightens up in there. I tapped all the way through. So I had to tighten the flange all the way in. I hope it's no big deal. I still have to hook up the boost tube. I ordered an AIH delete plug and it hasn't shown up yet.

I disconnected both batteries to do the electrical connections and when I first turned the key after putting everything back together I kind of stressed because everything on the dash pegged out for a second. I've never disconnced both batteries before. Is that supposed to happen?

Anyway, ISSPRO gauges look great, thanks to Diesel Manor, great instructions, ITP for paint and Dfuser for AIH delete with boost connection .

On to exhaust and chip. Does it ever end?

No it never ends. There is always something else. Congrats on the gauges. I like the look of the ISSPRO I should have gotten those instead of the Auto meter.. Time to upgrade.
