I really like the dipricol gauges but they dont have a water temp gauge(that I could find). They do have a trans temp gauge, 100-280*F range. It comes with a 1/8" NPT sender, is that the size of the spare hole in the waterpump? A temp gauge is a temp gauge, right.

Well i'm back with another question. Due to my recent fiscal situation, and the amount of supporting mods needed to take full advantage of a chip, im thinking of just getting my pcm reflashed. I called a few ford dealers and they wanted $90-$100 for a reflash. I know DP does reflashes to stock or to an optional program. Since I have a 94.5 with A or AA injectors, 15*HPOP, and other items that limit me to a realistic 40HP gain total. DP offers stock, 20T,40T,60T,80T,100performance,120R & up.
*Since I can only support 40HP max, should I just get a 40T program or 60T?
*Tow settings are stronger down low compared to econo settings, correct?
*Last, will I lose any mpg going with a tow program compared to a stock reflash or just leave the BEG8 code PCM that I have now?
Thanks again

I back again, but I did talk to Jody @ DP Tuner.
He said the max increase in rwhp they've seen is 90HP. He also said since this is a daily driver that I should just get the 80 econo tune. There would also be a slight mileage increase too, which is great since my best so far was 21mpg highway.
Now my question:
Does anyone have a certain HP tune in both Tow and Econo? How does the difference feel? Im guessing the Tow has more power from idle. But where does the Econo powerband kick in?
