Your normal engine temperature gauge measures coolant temps. Pyrometer measures exhaust gas temperature. It is important because if you get to hot on the exhaust temp you can burn up your turbo or your engine. If your exhaust temps get too high you have to back out of it and let it cool down, your pushing it too hard. Either because the pump is turned too high and giving the engine too much fuel, or because the load is way too heavy, or your in too high a gear with too heavy a load. On a stock engine that is not overloaded it is not a great concern, but on something that has fuel added or is pulled harder than it should it can be a concern.
