CLEVELAND, Ohio - Sunpro(r), "The Performance Legend," has introduced a Turbo Diesel Gauge Set (CP7050) that enables diesel pickup owners to keep an eye on their trucks' critical systems.The gauge pack includes three Sport ST(tm) performance meters - exhaust gas temperature (EGT) (CP7019), transmission fluid temperature (CP7003) and boost (0-60 psi) (CP7027) - and a trim-to-fit universal triple gauge pod to mount them in. "These gauges can help you identify small problems before they become big, costly repairs," said Joe Young, product manager, Sunpro. "If you use your diesel pickup for work or to tow heavy loads, these gauges are especially important. We've created a convenient package that includes everything you need." Sunpro's EGT gauge measures exhaust gases as they exit the engine and helps identify rich or lean air/fuel ratios. Too rich of a mixture, commonly caused by too much fuel or not enough air - such as a clogged air filter, restricted exhaust or sustained heavy load - will result in a higher exhaust temperature reading. The gauge can also be used as a guide to lower fuel consumption. Lower EGT temperatures can help maximize fuel economy. The transmission fluid temperature gauge gives drivers early indication of an overheating transmission, often in advance of the vehicle's dashboard warning light and before any damage occurs. Sunpro's boost gauge measures the pressure created by the truck's turbocharger or supercharger. Too much boost can have consequences ranging from bad timing to detonation to engine failure. The boost gauge also measures pressure at the intake manifold, unlike most stock gauges that "calculate" boost based on data collected by the vehicle's onboard computer systems. An aftermarket boost gauge is especially important for diesel trucks that have undergone significant performance modifications. Sunpro Sport ST gauges feature an attractive black dial face and illuminated pointer for easy viewing as well as through-the-dial for enhanced night visibility. Factory calibrated and certified, they come with all hardware needed for installation and are backed by a full one-year warranty. To assist customers, Sunpro maintains a support center staffed by ASE-certified technicians to answer product questions - from proper use and installation to gauge calibration. The support center can be contacted at 800.228.7667, Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. (EST). The Sunpro Turbo Diesel Gauge Set can be purchased from leading automotive performance suppliers.
