i would get a set of guages, just mho. or you can get the in dash monitor with egt probe. but you still wanna see trans temps and boost pressures

the sct is your best bet you can get them with 5 preset on the fly programs and it can hold up to three custom tunes and it has all your gauges built into it

also though if you are not wanting to go big with the tunes edge and quadzilla have on the fly programers with all your gauges built into to them but i still suggest the sct in case you decide to go big in the future you can add tunes to them

The gauges are a must. Turbo, Exhaust temp, Trans

Give Eric a call at Innovative Diesel and he will set you up with excellent custom tunes. I went with the Extreme Tunes on a SCT X3

if you dont want to hook up gauges you can go with the SCT livewire. there is still some install reqd. but it is not as extensive. you dont want to get the X3 unless all u are gonna run is "CUSTOM" tunes because it no longer comes with "CANNED" tunes. so be careful before you order... but if you want the truck to run at its best get tunes from eric @innovative ot cale@bdp. good luck man

black 06, you are exactly right. My brother got an x2 from sct and had innovative deisel send him an email with the new tunes, I **** when he dropped the hammer, It went everyway but straight. I got out of his truck, walked in and ordered one right then. It is unbeilivable. I am sitting by the door waiting for the ups guy.

But as far as guages, Innovative uses really safe parimeters. The install defueler and and egr valve bypass
