Hey Chet - Roving Recovery in BC. I ordered the "kit" for the HDJ80.

My buddy has a Duramax diesel with an Edge controller and digital display that shows Boost, EGT's, Oil temp and water temp all on one screen.
Is there something out there similar we can use with a digital readout?
Does the MadMan have the feature to display more than one thing on the screen at a time?

The mad man only displays one thing at a time but can be se to scroll thru all screens every5-10-15 seconds. I realize most of us would like to constantly watch everything as it happens but to me .... That's a cluttered dash. Wih the madman I have set all my alarms to go off a little on the early side to give me fair warning to back off, and in doing that when it goes off it automaticly flips to that respective screen. One thing I did noice with that system is you will have to run it off a relay direct from a battery and use a solid block/ chassis ground.... This thing is sensitive! Once installed correctly I love this setup, set it and forget it till it tells u otherwise.
Yeah - The Madman has been the best mod so far. Most used anyways and best bang for buck. X2 on using a good ground
. I just hooked the pos to the 12V outlet/box - ACC.
I manually scroll through - knowing what I want to see when (i.e. tranny temp/EGT on steep hills, etc). For anything unexpected (i.e. coolant loss, oil press), there's the alarm. I drive by this gauge....
The location in front of the shifter is perfect - don't even look down to scroll. No blinding/annoying light at night either.

I tigged up some 1/8th aluminum and made a box, drilled 2 holes, powdercoat and stuck it too the dash. Works well.

I made a plate and painted it with some black wrinkle paint. It matched almost perfectly to the dash. The switches are for the winch, and glow screen.

Did you install a pocket?

Had my gauge pod mounted down low but felt like I was constantly taking my eyes off the road so eventually bit the bullet and mounted it up high... way better now

Looks great! What gauges are those?
I'm curious too - they look exactly like the Madman.

looks clean. its only a matter of time until I get the turbo set up in my 77, I am going the isspro route again.
Did you get the ones with the amplifier boxes or did you go the EV2 series where everything is built into the gauges?
New Autometer GS series gauges.
I added a dimmer switch
