Just joined this site yesterday. Looks great! I just finished installing my gauges. :thumbs It took me about 4 hours and 8 beers. On 100hp setting seeing about 25 psi and 1200 on egt's with foot on the floor. Now I have to get my BTM installed and then figure out what is next:sweet

Welcome to SDD! You'll like it here sounds like. Check out the WIKI for some good starters.:sweet

I'd like to hear what that BTM does to your EGT's for reference. Oh and does your truck have a cat? I straight piped mine with a cat before the 4".:thumbs I dropped about 100 degrees but could easily peg :eek: the gauge runnin the Evo in the hot program that made 304hp with the 4" that finishes the quarter in the 1300's now.

Hey MUDDUCK,
I see you are from A-town as well. I installed my pyro probe in the pipe coming off the exaust manifold using the clamp that came with my gauges. I was really worried about it but just start with a small hole and work your way up. I got my shop-vac and sealed it around the hole after each hole I drilled. It seemed to have worked ok. Where do you live if you don't mind me asking? I live on off of Judge Ely kind of behind Lytle Land & Cattle. Let me know if you have any problems. Check http://www.longislandperformancediesel.com Jeremy has great prices. That is who I have been getting all of my stuff from. Look at the customers rides. My truck is the last one. One of the captions reads Andy's new DP-Tuner switch installed. Keep me posted and if you have any problems let me know. I will help if I can.:thumbs

Thanks for the link. Those are pretty good prices. I am on the other side of town off Fulwiler on the north side of I-20.

Welcome to the PLACE to Be
I see your infected as well, with the Modification/Alteration bug, it has no cure at this time. but we do find large doses of "neat things" and "Hp/Go faster" items tend to curb the desires long enough to go to work, make money, and then to spend it on the truck. :D
