3 gsk info

i've read some older interesting threads on goin to the 3 gsk. some said to add guages some said not necessary. if the gsk is the only mod i do, goin to 410's probably for towin(15k gcvw), are the temps an issue?

it didn't make my EGT's go up very much at all. But towing 15k u should have gauges anyway. You can add quite a bit of power without EGT's getting to high, but each truck seems to get affected differently when it comes to EGT's, so gauges are the only way to tell. So yes, you should have gauges.
