gauge questions

Just a few questions.
if i get the new isspro EGT, boost and tranny gauges from genos garage does it come with everything i need to install? I.E. the thermo couplers sending units, tubing, lines and whatever else comes with it?
also should i get anything for the boost gauge or the tranny gauge? like the boost bolt or the tranny line from mass diesel? or could i put the tranny sensor somewhere on the truch as it is right now and get a good reading? thanks for the help everyone, just making sure i get everything i need at once

The boost bolt makes installing the boost gage a breeze. Don't know about the trans line - I'm using the idiot light for that...

I got my isspro pyro and boost gauges from genos and they came with everything needed to install, including a boost bolt. Geno's even sent a copy of dodge specific installation sheet! Can't help you with the trans gauge since I don't have one

Get the line from www.massdiesel.com. It took all of 10 minutes to install. You will get the hottest readings this way.

Yes, that is the correct tranny line.

For you guys with the '05 CTD, where on the intake manifold did you install the boost bolt when installing the gauges? I had an '03 HO, but looking at the new 610 engine, it has a different manifold configuration.
thanks, Steve

Swansong, thanks for the pic....actually looks easier than the '03.

By the way, I saw where you put the pyro probe.. did you put it there because it's easier to drill/tap rather than on the vertical section just above the turbo? How thick is the exhaust manifold at that point?

I was thinking I'd put mine on the left side of the flange to pick up heat from cylinders 5&6 which rumor has it run hotter (?). Any thoughts?
