I have Pyro, Trans Temp, and Boost gauges in my truck already. My question is this: If I put an Edge Comp box on the truck, what gauges should I run? Should I be good or do I need something else? I would like to have fuel pressure as well. If I run 4 gauges, which one would you put on the steering column??

 

Fuel pressure is the most important gauge you need. Gotta make sure that VP is happy. Anything below 10psi is not good for ur VP

 

I'd have to agree. Always a good idea to monitor fuel pressure in one of these rigs!

 

In my opinion anything below the point that the overflow opens (14psi) is too low, that's why places like Industrial Injection recommend 15-18psi under any circumstance.

Anyways, I have my fp gauge on the column because it is without a doubt the most important gauge to monitor, and when I'm dropping the hammer I could care less about boost or egt, I'm watching that pressure.

 

Yes fuel pressure is the MOST IMPORTANT, and according to genos garage you need at a minimum of 4-5 PSI when at WOT, and 12-14 PSI at idle, I just replaced my lift pump yesterday takes about 40 minutes to do, and a 3/4 wrench and a 7/8's or use the quick connect. Now at WOT I have 12PSI of fuel pressure it use to drop to 5PSI

 

I agree, but I thought they opened at 18 psi, or maybe that's fully opened.

After looking into other options, I most definitely wouldn't put one on the steering column. I recently picked up a dash pod for 3 gauges, and like it more then my pillar pod. It is a little more of a head turn to see it, but it doesn't block the view of the road at all. I find the pillar pod does. I'm do Pyro, Trans temp, and Fuel PSI in the dash pod as they are all electric, and it's easier to run wires to the center, up and over, around and through, compared to hoses. I will then have 3 boost gauges on the pillar. You could put a single pillar pod on yours for boost as well.
