I got 4 gauges (60 and 100 psi boost, tranny and pyro) for 550. plus the cost of the pod and a can of paint.
It's $1100.00 when your going for Rail pressure, fuel pressure, boost and the pod up here in Canada.

DD, I was only going to get a triple overhead for the same layout as Cujo, Pyro, Boost and Tranny. I don't anticipate any big fueling for it, so I doubt I need rail pressure. I was going for a light for the low fuel pressure, don't need a gauge for that IMHO..
Ahh, I see. Those 3 gauges are cheap...
I will never own another Cummins without a fuel pressure gauge..

I really like mine. Went from 2 on the a-pillar to one on the pillar, two on the column, and 3 overhead.. Much easier to see everything and less blockage of the road.

I plan on adding another pod, smart-alek!

So I will have:
2- Isspro Performax Boost (for the twins)
1 Isspro Performax Water Temp
2 Isspro Performax EGT (front 3 and rear 3 )
1 Isspro Performax Rail Pressure
1 Isspro Performax Oil Temp
1 Isspro Performax Oil Pressure
1 Isspro Performax Drive Pressure.
1 Isspro Performax LP Pressure for the MITUSA
that should about cover it.

Whoa.. That would about do it I would think..

Performax.. hmm. The resolution gauge incriments don't appeal to me so much.

To each their own. On that note though, I really do like the looks of their new EV2 series.

If I didn't have the performax system... Bob's your uncle, the 2's would be in the truck.


One nice thing about the Performax system, Datalogging.

The other is the simplified wiring. All gauges you add is a simple affair.
run the sensor and install it in port. Plug wiring into the black box.

Then daisy chain off the existing installed gauges, and presto!... it works, and it's that easy!

Ya I was reading up on that. The daisy chain thing was pretty cool, especially if you were to go overhead.. 3 wires and its done.. Data logging would be neat, especially for competition use. Thanks..

I've got two on the column and four overhead...it fits perfectly in the little shaded area on the window and the mirror actually helps hold it in on my '05. Works great when you're going for the semi-stealth look, too.

Cool Update...

Got the gauges installed in the overhead pod. I originally ordered Optix to give them a shot, but was called immediately from Genos that they were indefinitely back ordered. Sooooo, I went with the EV2's from Isspro. Basically stand alone versions of the Performax series. So far, really like them and match well to the interior lighting. Wiring was a pain, but that happens.

Thanks to all who posted..

I really liked the dashpod, however, I have a 4 foot 10 inch tall wife who needs the dash area completely clear for a decent view of road even with seat all the way up and a pillow. I imagine any of our shorter than average members would have the same issue. I went with the over the mirror pod mount. I have found that if you are scanning mirrors it takes less than a half sec more to glance at gauges. I know where the needles should be in normal ranges so all it takes is a glance. Staring at the gauges while driving may be asking for trouble.
