Exclamation Boost Gauge

I am going to get a boost gauge from isspro and I was wondering how high should i have the gauge go up to 0-40, or 0-60. its a stock 7.3. Also I would like to get an exhaust temp gauge, should i go pre-turbo or post-turbo like the colored ones with green yellow red or just the generic numbered ones. Thank you for your help.

I asked the same questions on what to get and was told, running stock turbo 0-30 boost, like Glenn said, pre-turbo and i,m assuming your talking about the different probes you can buy? If it was me even though its stock, you might get a better deal and price if you got the whole system, boost, pyro, trans temps. This way your covered for future PMS, its addicting.

Unless you spend some serious change, you'll never see over 40, so that one will do.

DEFINITELY pre-turbo on the pyro...
