New gauges
Put in new glow shift gauges in 01 3500.
Boost, EGT, fuel pressure Boost is reading 22 max EGT is reading 400 to 1000 and responds fast to throttle. Fuel pressure 9 at idle 4 at wot. Truck has in tank fuel pump and 4" exhaust with magma flow muffler. No other mods Are these readings normal? Fuel pressure seems off? Want to put on fass lift pump, s&b air intake , and edge comp. truck tows a lot and just looking for a little extra umps. Any ideas? |
I have the glow shift coolant temp,egt and trans temp that I will be hooking up tomorrow so knowing if those numbers are good would be helpful for me too lol

I believe that fuel pressure will damage injecter pump below 5 psi. That's why I think the gauge is off? The other ones I don't have a clue about. The EGT I drilled and taped manifold. Didn't know it was up and down so fast when on and off throttle. Boost seems to run and react normal.

if your fuel pressure gauge is accurate start saving for a new injection pump, it'll just be a matter of time. get a good lift pump on there asap. my truck idles at 19 and wot is 13ish
|
I have glowshift gauges also, Ifeel they are accurate,I'd change the lift pump,you'll see the increase
|
Do the other gauges look right?
Boost 20ish max EGT 400 to 1000 and responds to throttle? |
If your turbo and such is all stock 20 is about the max you should see.
|
My turbos stock and I can get it up to 36 in the right conditions

Thanks. Think I'll have local shop check fuel pressure. Just to see how accurate that gauge is and order up a fass lift pump.

when i had a stock turbo with my programmer i could hit 40 psi. not a safe 40 psi though. |
