Obviously DC feels that your turbo will last at least though the warranty period wihtout the need for this, otherwise we would have decent guages from the factory. But if you have the intent of keeping your rig for 200+K, I'd highly recommend a good set of guages.
This is our first Diesel. I don't have a clue about the gauges your speaking of. Yep, I like to keep it as long as I can, that way I can recoop some off the extra cost of buying diesel over gas.
