I was wondering, where is the best place to buy a set of gauges? I want to get a FP, Boost, and an EGT. I want to find a place that I can get everything I need (a-pillar holder, gauges, and all necessary hardware and lines). Thanks for any feedback

I got everything to do my truck from the DTR store.

where I got my pillar, gauges, everything

What brand do you want? Summitt Is pretty cheap for gauges too.

 

Bought the IssPRo's and single dash pod from Diesel Injection Services. Ordered them online, grteat customer service and help after the sale.

Purchased the DiPricols and the Autometer 3-guage A-pillar from DPPI. Good price, easy to order, and you can see what they look like right away. I didn't research enough, and found little use for the rubber hose splice for the boost tap. I replaced the plug in the manifold behind the fuel filter instead.

Any vendor in the LINKS section above is a good bet. For the least hassle, Wildcat will set you up with everything you need, down to boost bolt and braided fuel pressure line.

Where ever you get them, enjoy them! I love being able to monitor my engine now! After reading all of the horror stories, and some of the "nick-of-time" stories, I have become sold on proper guages. I find it comforting to know exactly what my lift pump pressure is! When I add some BOMB's to this beast, they will be even more valuable!

 

Got my Isspros from this guy on ebay then ordered my FP gauge and mounts from him also! He's a nice guy and ships stuff fast! I think the company is Cross Diesel Performance, John's the guys name, heres the email address crossdiesel@sbcglobal.net I will buy anything i need for my truck in the future from him also!

I'd say either the DTR store, or Wildcatdiesel.

DTR store didn't exist when I got mine,
Wildcat jumped through some hoops to get me everything by my install date.
(Isspro was having some backorder problems,
so Rod of Wildcat called in some favors to find me a FP guage just in time,
and probably ate some shipping costs as well)

I wouldn't think twice about using them again.


www.wildcatdiesel.com, give them a call, leave a message, and Rod will get right back to you.

He's usually too busy to answer every phone call, but returns calls every time.

Thanks for all the info. I wanted to get a set of Isspro EV, I had heard alot of good things about Wildccatdiesel, I think I will get them there when I am ready to order.

Thanks

I love my IssPRO EV Pre-Turbo Pyrometer! Looks great and is easy to see the safety zone. I didn't care for the EV guage pod though -- DIS sent me a return shipping lable with the old style cup which I wanted. I just unwired the EV plug harness from the guage and rewired it after running the wires in from the back of the pod. The EV guages have a square white plastic connector for the wiring harness that doesn't fit through the old style pod wiring holes. The new EV pod has a large hole in the bottom rear for it, though.

phox_mulder has a nice picture of the EV pod mounted on his dash. I will have a similar picture soon of the same setup with the old style pod.

 

That's why that hole is so big.

Curious to see what the old style pod looks like,
I might be tempted to switch.
