I spoke to my contact at Edge on the Edge Juice with Attitude CTS, part # EP21503, and he said you do not need a boost probe for this product. It will get that information from the engine control module of your 2007 Chevrolet Silverado 6.6L Duramax Diesel LMM.
The EGT (exhaust gas temperature) probe is included in the package and he said that on your Chevrolet 6.6L Duramax Diesel LMM it is not equipped with a pre-turbo EGT probe. It is however equipped with two EGT probes downstream from the turbo. Both of these probes readings are available for display on the Edge Juice with Attitude CTS. However they are not an accurate representation of combustion chamber temperatures. He said it is recommended to install the EGT probe in a pre-turbo location.
He also said that the DPF (Diesel Particulate Filter) status is monitored by the Edge Juice and does not need any probes because it uses the EGT probe to monitor the DPF status.
