Default Lets see the cockpit of your 6.0

Hey guys,

Lets post some pictures of your cockpit from the drivers seat. This way we can get some ideas of how everyone has their gauges/pods/monitors and whatever else, set up in their trucks. This can be a long ongoing thread so if someone comes here asking what a specific type of gauge may look like, they can see it here. Be sure to post what gauges and what brand they are too. I'll get some of mine up later when I get home to my camera...

I never get tired of seeing CSI's gauge setup haha.

What are all the buttons to the left of the HVAC controls? How about a list of the gauges you have, I know I've seen it floating somewhere before...

Also how are you reading ~43 psi of boost sitting still? Seems like even if you were in 4x4 and drive with your foot on the brake, it'd override the brakes at some point.

A pillar top to bottom

Exhaust Back Pressure 0-60
Boost Pressure 0-60
Left EGT 0-2000
Right EGT 0-2000

Dash Top

Water Injection Pressure 0-180psi

Overhead Pod left to right

Tranny temp 100-280
Rear diif temp 100-280
Oil temp 100-280
Coolant temp 100-280

Dash Suround

Drive oil Pressure 0-400
Intake air temp 0-240
Volts 10v-16v
Fuel level for the bed tank

Underdash left to right

Fuel pressure 0-100
Oil Pressure 0-100
Air Pressure 0-180

And a Scan Gauge on the steering column...

The nice thing about the performax line, among others is the peak recall... Truck is not even running right there, I press a button and the gauges all go to there last peak reading (other then fuel pressure and HPO pressure, they go to the lowest), press it again and they go back to normal readings. Also have data logging and the new warning lights!


The switchs are for the compressor, water injection, Mirror heat, CB and strobes.

I was wondering if they had a recall function. Cool. Thanks for sharing.

You got a pilots license for that thing? Lol. Geez. More gauges and monitoring equipment than a 747.
