Love the system I've added the COol Engine Shutdown and that is sweet also.
I have the Pyro in the Post Turbo position due to haveinthe Banks Six Gun w/Speed Loader installed inthe Pre turbo position.
There are some pics on my members pics page.
If I were to do it again I would get the dash mount vise the pillar mount toheop with the sun glare.

you would find it real difficult to get mine away from me. Pics are at

look at the gauge pics, the glare problem hasn't bothered me much, and I prefer it on the post any way. I Like it a lot better than the multiple round gauges but then thats only my preferance

I like the small footprint.
It does wash out in direct sunlight.
Once every 30 starts or so mine displays all zeros. Restart and it's always fine. Not so frequent that I've got the motivation to fix it.

I talked to BD about that and they say it is a ground problem. Mine didn't start doing it until I installed the Cool Engine Shutdown Timer. All i do to fix it is unplug the cable coming form the X-Monitor to the CES and plug it back in and all is OK

Expensive--but well worth it. Drove a Ford the other day with bank's guages and it did not even compare. Love seeing max EGT and boost. Very easy to read too.

Don't know how I drove without it. Just finished a 2300 mile trip hauling my 40' Teton 5th wheel and went up some pretty steep grades and over long mountain roads. The X-Monitor really came in handy for watching those EGT's. Never knew the Tranny temp ran so cool. The X-Monitor is pricey but great insurance which makes it a cheap deal to protect your engine.
