So your Speedo is connected to factory instrument cluster?
If so very nice.
No he has the Intellitronix digital dash too.

Tomorrow will be the maiden voyage of the R2.8 on some trails in the Big Horn National Forest with my good buddy Berry. I am charging the spot now just in case, LOL.
Does cummins still ship the 2.8l with the plastic oil pan or is their optional aluminum one standard these days?
Interesting that the gm output shaft in the nv4500 can't hold up to the 6bt. Speaking of the nv,can it be adapted to the r2.8l?
Follow up on my EGR issue. The Cummins repair site called Quickserve lists out that continuing to drive with the egr fault code can result in the ECM reducing max engine torque. I contacted Brittany, the tech lead at Cummins and she replied back that on this model, the EGR will fail closed with this code, I got an easy EGR delete, keep that nasty exhaust out of my intake tract!
My next question for you guys is should I turn up the power on this engine? Tuners are getting scarce because of the EPA cracking down and leveling big fines. But I think there is at least one person willing to tune my ECM with a 200 hp/400 ft lb tune, the big question is can my AX15 live with 400 ft lbs of torque that comes on at 1800 and lasts through 2800 rpms. When I get on the highway, I am in 5th gear by 45 miles an hour and the Jeep pulls minor hills with ease, hills that the 4.0 gasser would have had to downshift to 4th on. Fuel economy so far seems excellent at over 20 mpg. My fuel gauge only reads 90% when the tank is totally full, but it gives me a reference. I have been driving the Jeep to an appointment 40 miles from home and I have made the trip 3 times to try and get some miles on it. My mechanical fan set up is 10 times better than the POS supposed 3000 cfm electric fan and shroud that I put on originally. This thing is kind of fun to drive and if I bang through the gears at WOT, it would easily out accelerate my old 4.0. Engine is pretty quiet even with the 2.5 inch stainless straight pipe exhaust! I would say my 4.56 gears are perfect for my type of driving.
