Pictues of the ISSPRO Performax control module

For those that asked for additional pics - here is the main control module for the gauges, as well as pics of the sending units for the coolant temp and fuel pressure

looks like a nice unit..those deutsch connectors are some quality pieces. I really like them, and was looking at buying a kit for my garage until I saw the price tag on the crimp tool..over $350!!

So waht's the benefit of this module, TNT? I've evidently missed the earlier threads on this topic.

Dang Pete, try to keep up will ya ???? LOL

read this thread .. https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/7...ges-today.html

but basically the module is the "brain" .. there are simply three wires that run to ALL gauges, daisy chained one to the next. The module is under the hood, so all the sender / sensor wires stay under the hood - you can run up to 17 gauges off it, without having to run sender wires for EACH one into the cab .. MUCH cleaner install !

Great information. I have been a long time planning on using blackout gauges, but I really like the concept of what you're doing much better from a purely technical perspective, and I also like the way those gauges look, too.

I got my overhead from Dfuser diesel - a site sponsor. The pillar pod - woodgrained - I honestly can't remember where I got it, but I know Bill at Dfuser can get those as well - the new pod - below the dash - will be fabbed from a 4 gauge pod made for a Camaro - stay tuned for that one

and here are some pics of how it all daisy chains together .. VERY clean install !!!

Never mind, I got caught up and found it.

ND .. the power/ground/data wires go into connectors, that can literally daisy chain each gauge together. You just put connectors on the 3 wires for each gauge. Since the data line is sending signals for all gauges, the gauge will pick up the correct data for it's sender. You could pull the gauges out, mix them all around, and you still get the right readings

Its a very slick set up with many more options coming down the line. I am testing a data logging software now, the peak recall should be in your ESP (control box) now, and there are a few more things coming.


Feel free to ask me any questions about the gauges, or ESP... My webshots has a TON of Performax shots on it.
