"OFFICIAL" What did you do to your D-Max today?
After getting it up and running I would not get it to run gauges. Get mechanical gauges or a CTS. It's nice to just check simple things and scan/check codes. But definitely not for running dedicated gauges.- SoCalMike

Goerend "R" or Goerend "DK"
I think he does well for Mike to vouch for him. Are you getting a trans cooler too. I'm looking at possibly getting one when I get the converter swapped.- SoCalMike
