I'm on my iPhone so I can't give you all the reasons, but stay away from glow shift. They are more for tuner cars than diesel. Some one will chime in why not. But in the mean time get ahold of me and I can get you quality gauges for close to that price.

Jim the Glow Shift guages are like wiping your butt with sandpaper it will work but not a good idea!!

Clay will take care of you on a set of good guages. I have Autometers and are happy with them.

0-1600 EGT, 0-30 or 0-40 PSI for the boost, 100-280 or so for the tranny...

I recomend Isspro EV2 myself... Or the Performax line...
