Hauling??? You can not be empty running 1250-1300 doing 75mph.

It was fairly easy. The Dash bezel snaps off and the cubby hole pocket snaps out. The mount uses the clips from the original pocket. It just snaps in. The wiring is not any more difficult that a pillar install. There is plenty of space behind the dash to route wires.

I would say anything above 1600º for more than 15 seconds will be putting a lot of stress on the pistons. The VNT turbo is designed to pull the longest steepest grade in the country at 1450º.

Bgallium, If you cruise at 1200º, something is very very wrong.
