Sunpro guages?

[chefmike]

I am working on my suburban to make it a dependable daily driver/family road trip machine... I do not tow much, love the mileage and space.

I have ordered the 2.5" crossover, planning on a exhaust system. Looking at guages now. Is the sunpro triple worth it? I really want boost and EGT... I would rather have fuel pressure than tranny temp, as I do not tow much at all.

Thoughts?

You want a boost gauge to go no higher than 15, 20 max.

60psi is way to high as you'd only be using 0-15

I went with the Boost/Pryo from Kennedy Diesel's website. Cheap, look nice, work well.

Boost, egt, and fuel pressure are a must on any 6.5 in my opinion.

I have the SunPro guages in mine and have had some, somewhat good luck with them. Being in Oregon and all the rain the egt guage goes hinky at times of hard rain. Like the wet is getting into the thermocouple connections and is causing a short or something. On the wet roads it reads low. And of course the roads are so bad here that the pot holes and rough cause the needle to jump alot. Now on the dirt roads it is just fine.

Having said that, SunPro has replaced the whole guage twice in the just over a year that it has been installed at no cost to me. The boost and trans temps are just fine. And the Sport ST II guages match the dash just perfectly.
