I am wanting to keep a clean look in my truck, but I want EGT and maybe boost gauge. The cleanest way for EGT is the SRT10 pillar. But I think I would like to put a boost gauge there instead. I was wondering if I could remove the voltmeter from the dash and replace it with EGT, or if this would cause a problem.

Thanks in advance, this forum is a great tool.

That is a good idea, very interesting thought

how about relocating the cigarette lighter to the blank panel on the pass. side and putting the pyro where the cig. lighter plug was?

It should work fine. I did the same thing, but put the tranny temp. there. You'll have a better view than me since you have a 6-speed. My auto shifter is slightly in the way when in D, but tranny temp doesn't move much so you don't look at it as often as you would the PYRO.

Don't want to hack up your 1100.00 dash, yep pretty spendy if you make a mistake.
I too am getting the SRT-10 A Pillar but will probably go with Trans Temp and EGT in that hole as I feel it would be more important for me with my auto.
If you want to view both EGT and Boost there is a gauge just for you here Go with the white dial and green background should look nice.

Another question: does the boost gauge and EGT gauge void your warranty or just the EGT? I am putting off mods that will do that for about 28k miles.

Also, that SPA gauge is nice, but pretty pricey.

Thanks,

Hi Nick,
I can't imagine an EGT voiding the warranty, I guess from drilling the manifold?? but if your Dealer is that picky I would find another.
I found westach can make a dual EGT and trans temp or boost with a white face for much less $$$

That Westach isn't bad and Geno's Garage has it for $199. Also I will call my dealer and ask about the EGT gauge. Thanks for the help.

Why don't you install th BD X-Monitor it has Tranny/Boost/Pyro. You can even paint the mount to match the interior color and you won't even know it was not stock

nirion

That was my original plan, until I saw how the SRT pillar looked. I really like the clean look it gives. Plus $360 for pyro/boost only is a little more than I was looking to spend. The dual westach is $199 and the autometer EGT is around $145 I think.

I do like the digital outputs though. But not enough to justify the cost.
