I just installed the edge juice w/attitude and love it.

It does not show trans temp, but it will de-fuel to prevent trans slippage.

Do I need a trans temp guage?

well, if you don't haul or use the truck in 4x4 allot then i wouldn't think it is absolutely necessary .. and just on a side note if you have put bigger tires on your truck and got the s t e a l e r to re-flash the ecm then your de-fueling on transmission slip won't work

Good luck

The truck is stock, just bought it with 10k miles on it.

I will be hauling from time to time, heavy loads too. Whats the best way to add a trans temp guage? Do I need any other guages since I have the Edge Attitude monitor?

Side note, I'm trying to learn as much as possible about this stuff:
Anyone know, why would someone upgrade a fuel pump?
what does a tq tube do?

Thanks, Phil

what yr is your truck .. on mine the attitude gauge doesn't offer a transmission temp option .. i have a analogue trans temp gauge .. and my sensor is in the mag-hytec pan that i put in .. alto of guys put a in-line sensor the the hot line going to the transmission cooler .. you get those from these guys

IMHO a tq tube is a waste of money .. .. alot of guys replace there fuel pumps with fass systems , when you really start to play with horse power numbers .. i think for now you should be ok with the stock one.. if you ever upgrade to a hot juice or something more than a 100 hp i would think about other mods like transmission and a fass style fuel system ..

you can see my analogue gages in my photo gallery


good luck

OK, well i am pretty sure you don't have a transmission temp option on that set up

I love your guage set-up, but I have 4x4 control and seat heater buttons in that location.

Really Nice truck.

Any advise on exhaust system upgrade, I'm looking at an Aero Turbine 4040XL on upgraded 4" pipe. Do I do install it from the turbo back or the cat back?

Don't know about the cat, keep it or lose it?

Thanks, Phil
