    I like having the boost and egt displayed along with rpm and instant mpg. Just makes it easier to adjust on the fly when it's all right there instead of on 4 different gauges in 4 different areas of the dash. I keep thinking about running another one to display engine load, hp, and throttle position.

    You can move boost gauge to any position in dash with same size hole .. the wiring is the same for the gauges . Each gauge reads whichever pulse it’s supposed to regardless of position in dash.

    It would be cool to just order a truck with absolutely no gauges at all in it, and then just have a few KR scan gauges mounted in various locations throughout the cab to check and monitor at any given time. Heck even have a couple mounted in the the bunk.
     
    armo and bzinger Thank this.

    Your idea of cool couldn't be farther away from mine. 20 gauges in the dash with high polished stainless bezels. Fuel temp and fuel pressure will make it 22 when I get around to hooking them up.

    I had mine on hp, turbo, egt, mpg.


    I had the d version. And I don't know if mine was glitched or what but it kept causing ECM issues. Last time it was in the shop. They pulled it out. Never had issues after that.
