even stock knowing what your EGT's are are a good thing. Some of us turn up our fuel and add things to make more HP. Still always good to know Boost, EGT, tranny temp. and fuel pressure to be on the safe side. MY 2cents.

and i can make it sit right at 1250* (cummins said,safe limit!!) with a trailer a am afraid that it will be even hotter then that! i pulled my car and trailer all last year and think that i have been pushing the red line(Pyro egts) all last summer! luck for me the hill that i pull is short!!!!!
In short....YES it a vary good idea!

They have most everything, Pillar pods, Autometer gauges
Pyro, boost, Trans Temp,etc.
Good Luck
