You deffinate want a rail pressure. I have Di Pricol's going in when I have the time. Perfect match to the 3G dash panel. Here is a POOR POOR pic at night.

Not to hijack, but a person I know of on another Diesel site has.... 17 gauges total in his 7.3 PSD.... Some say overkill, some think its plain cool. I am the latter. :D He's got a night time pic and the driver side/center of cab is just awesome looking...

By saying this, I by no means think anyone needs that many gauges in my honest truth. lol lol

in some cases alot are good. I've got a buddy that has all the basics then F/R diff temps, drive pressur, intake temp, and some others I cant remember. If you plan on running it hard you can never run out of stuff to monitor, and as stated above I think they look cool.

I would do fuel pressure.... For sure. I run fp, boost and egt... with plans to add trans temp (i have a manual) and diff temps in the near future.

Hey guys, when using the dash pod, do you have to drill holes in the dash? Also, does it cover up the one vent? I think when I add more gauges that will be my best avenue. Thanks again.

Fuel Pressure and Rail Pressure :U:

FWIW, Iv got an 05 auto and 3.73 gearing, and shortly after getting it, I had a pyro and boost installed.
After tomorrow Ill have a FP added to the pillar and a tranny temp on the steering column.
Dont plan to add anything to the engine so I think Iv got all the bases covered with the gauges.

Out of curiousity, would a rail pressure be needed with a stock engine?

On an automatic I would say that you need - Trans, Boost, FP, RP, EGT; on a manual - Boost, FP, RP, EGT. Just my .02
