I am hoping to put some sort of gauges on my truck as soon as i can and was wondering what everyone thought about the commander? or if i should just go with regular pillar gauges? and if regular gauges which ones match the dash lighting best? prices? Thanks

I installed the Commander with the extra fuel pressure. I think it's the best bang for the buck. Works great. The pillar looks like a factory install. I can tell you through personal experience that the customer support is excellent.

I better cool it, starting to sound like I work for Quadzilla. Just happy with the service I received.

Tough call. Price wise it's a toss up.

Some people like the sweep and/or look of analog gauges, others not so much.

I did a poll on this before I got my gauges, it was a tough decision but I ended up with Di-Pricol Optix.
Here is what I came up with:

just installed commander with a xzt box and its great . if you buy them together you get a great price from dtr.easy to install,with pillar mount you can keep the grab handle and still havethe commander right there in plain view. just my 2 cent worth.

truk, do you like the power and everything you have with your new unit? i might do what you have done if i can get a good deal and think it will be worth it. i am eventually going to stack a programer, can you stack with that setup?

What he said, me too.
With analogs you don't need to "read" the gauges, you can tell at a glance how things are, I went with DiPricols as well, a little more than Isspros but look more like the factory gauges.
(my 2¢)

Little off topic, but I would have stayed with Isspro (had them on my old truck) if I had known better. It's not the money, but the coloring.

My old Isspros were DEAD on to the factory 2nd Gen instruments, these Optix' s are off, way off.

The Pyro is nice, just about perfect. Fuel pressure and boost are darn near solid blue.

I wonder if writing to Danin would do any good?

P.J

BUT, as with the Isspro's, these Di-Pricols are functioning 100%, so all in all I am still a happy camper.

If I get mine in and find the gauges I paid extra for so they match the dash better look the ***** at night I'll be writing letters!!

P.J

Hey, never know, it might just be my gauges.

Let us know how you make out with that, I'm not apposed to going without mine a few weeks to let them send me new ones either!

truk

its a real nice setup . yes you can tell there is a little more power. havent towed with it just drove back and forth to work really like it. and yes you can stack with it.it has a warm up cycle to it and quad has a poll on here there going to add a cool down timer soon. if you buy them together there really cheap i think. lary will give you a discount for buying both together.

truk, what about smoke? does it smoke a lot? i have a diablo sport programer now and i love the smoke haha

ptgarcia

If you can't read then get the analogs. If you can read get the Commander.
