strean,

Pyro for SURE, and of course boost, trans temp if you have an auto and if you plan any strong mods fuel pressure as well. Check our site if you want, we have the Isspro, Auto Meter and DiPricol guage brands as well as all the A pillar and overhead/dash mounts and all the connection parts as well. We'll be glad to help you with any questions etc.

Pyro is for monitoring exhaust gas temps. If you mod the truck (boxes, turbo's etc).........you must have one....or you'll cook the engine.

I have the white face DiPricols (Pyro, Boost and Fuel Pressure).......matches the the factory dash, almost like its a factory gauge.

I like the looks of the triple a pillar but wonder how close it will match my interior? Jim

I added ISSPRO Pyro, Boost, Trans Temp in the cubby hole mount. I'm very happy with the set up, and installation was easy. When I add a box, I will add a FP gauge on the pillar.

Dont scare him if its not true. If you dont have a pyrometer gauge you wont cook the motor. I went 30,000 miles with a bullydog on the 90hp setting with no gauges and im fine.

i have EGT, Boost, Trans temp on my A Pillar. i like the looks of them and even though i dont feel they are completely necessary, they look good. on the 90hp setting i top off about 1400. My truck can handle that so its not really necessary to have them but oh well. The 800 dollars was to look good
