Well, I could really use a set of gauges to monitor the vitals of whats going on under the hood of my 92. This is my second diesel, but not my second by choice. I wrecked my first one when a woman decided to pull out in front of me. So now I have this 92 D350,

it's a piece of work, but I'm slowly improving it. I'm slowly saving my little bit of money, the best I can. But it's not going to quickly as I'm a poor high school student and the price of fuel is really killing me. All of my money I make during the weekend goes into fuel. So gauges are far aways down the road. I would truly like to turn my pump up and not have to worry about things going south on me. These gauges would make a wonderful addition to my interior as well. I've been with this site since shortly after it's inception. I've seen many cool things won here. I would like to thank the sponsors for everything they do here. We are truly blessed to have such generous sponsors and site staff. If I were to win the contest, I would give an in depth photo installation guide for the gauges. I wish the best of luck to everybody.

I don't have guages in the old girl. I definately need them when I start stepping up the tunes. I am going to be towing a lot this summer.

Can I give up my admin powers for 30 days so I can participate? I really need a set of gauges! Were expecting our 4th (unexpected/not suppose to be little girl)! That's right! I got 4 daughters! I figured I'm being punished for something?

Why i would like these Gauges. Well Lets start first off that i have two different kinds of gauges in my truck Iss-pros and Hewitt industries they look nothing alike. The Hewitt is really really bright at night the EGT almost ok and the boost. well i have to almost turn the light on to see. Anther problem i have is my boost pressure gauge only goes to 30 I can max it with ease leaving me wondering how much boost im making. The last thing is how my EGT gauge looks. It has that green yellow red line. and it looks like the previous owner left it out in the rain for a little while. The black around the face is rusting and flaking off. It looks horrible.

Both of my other trucks had dipricol gauges on them (the older style) I loved them but since this truck came with egt and boost. And after the trans problems i have no cash. Im stuck with these. Im almost afraid to roll my window down for fear someone will see my EGT gauge.

Oh and pics no prob

Honestly I do not need the gauges because I have a set in my truck. But my dad really needs a set and I would love to give them to him as a surprise. He always talks about getting them because he has had a chip in his truck for over a year now but he never seems to have the time to get or install them since he works full time as well as runs a lawn business on the side and since spring is right around the corner I know if I leave it for him to do it will not happen.

I don't have a hardship story to tell like the others, however don't you think it would be wicked cool to see the install of these gauges in an EXCURSION!!??!!

I see many on this site with Cummins engines in their rides. My clean '02 Excursion with 7.3, could really use the gauges now that I've gone with the popular DP Tuner chip!

So how about it? Want to see some professional pics of a professional install?

Thanks!
