bought a power wire from Rocket last week and just installed it this morning. cheap and shipped out real quick. had some warnings with it being put on together with the Vararam so i am going to monitor everything pretty close for the next week to test it out. can definitely feel the difference in the topend acceleration. had a IAT sensor extender wire left over from the Vararam so i just attached it to there so i didnt have to cut the stock wiring.
heres the wiring

Nice, just keep an eye on the AFR, you want it around 12.0 @WOT.

You will also need a holder for it, can do a pillar pod or the steering col or in the vent hole or in the pocket area in the dash. I had mine in a single pillar pod from a SRT-10 for the old setup.

sweet thanks man! im gonna order it this weekend. took it off the truck untill i get it. and just gonna do a simple mount, cause i also wanna get more gauges

How many gauges are you wanting to do? The aeroforce gauge will read a LOT of different parameters and has a sideband setup you can buy to add on. A lot cleaner IMO and less clutter

Correct the wideband is an additional add on. But look at everything it reads that you don't need anything for

i see "** 0-5v inputs can be configured to read the outputs from MAP sensors, Air/Fuel ratio kits, pressure or temperature sensors, etc. Raw voltage can be displayed or a conversion can be entered to read proper units. ""

You will need to go into the sensor page "Check out Sensor Kits" for additional outputs.
1st listed is for reading AFR.
