Radracing:<br><br> I have Isspro gauges (pyro, boost &amp; tranny temp). Many guys also have a fuel pressure gauge due to lift pump concerns. I like my Isspro's because they match my dash gauges pretty closely and I have had no problems with them. I use a Scotty II air system to reduce egt's. It uses an oiled air filter, so you never have to replace it. In terms of fuel mileage, it seems that with most of these trucks, you actually see a little better mileage with power enhancements if you can keep your foot out of it. Concerning your question on oil, there are many opinions on which brand to use and you know what they say about opinions. I would do a search on this site and go with what you feel comfortable with. Finally, concerning vendors, there are a million of them out there but I try to use the ones that advertise or are members of this site. There is also an online store through this site, although I believe the Scotty II air system can only be purchased through Rod at Wildcat Diesel, who is a member of this site. Am I right Rod or Scotty?
