+--- Thread: Where do people get their EGT gauges? (/showthread.php?tid=5008)
Where do people get their EGT gauges? - Hario' - 10-10-2013
As above really, eBay sell £30-40 specials which I'm staying away from, companies like Greddy sell them for c£200.
Does anybody have a source of cheaper reliable ones? I intend to use an industrial pressure gauge for EGP.
Thanks,
H.

I have a glowshift 3in1 gauge for my car for the past 3 years, it has worked fine and been reliable, but I don't know how much I'd recommend one just because they are made kind of cheap like.
Isspro and autometer (not the cheapest series though), I've have always been a fan of Stewart Warner gauges also.

Auber Instruments are my cheap go-to supplier

Mine is made by Sunpro, I believe it was around $100 or so, seems to work pretty well

For the european fellows maybe the STRI X-line gauges are a good option (probably available in America too). I bought one for 121 euro's. Comes with probe and electrical wiring. It looks decent and works fine.

I got mine from "egauges.com" , discount prices on all name brand stuff. No affiliation.

Arduino + lcd= $40
K type thermocoupler = $30

Am googling arduino installation now.
I'd prefer a gauge style type but how has anyone checked accuracy?
I have an ir temperature gun but I can't exactly probe my actual exhaust gas, not can I do it whilst driving for that matter!
I'm sure eBay gauges can't be that inaccurate?! I think in trying to convince myself here..

Name-brand gauges will give name brand results, lab quality thermocouples + aurduino or 12v temperature controller work wel too.
I wouldn't go with a noname chinese unit though.

Go to demontweeks website.
Every single type of gauge and brand u can think of from a UK based company.
I used stack before. Not cheap nut then again it looked well made at night mot cheap and taccy.
Nice to see another fellow brit ;-)

Im going to buy a k-type thermocouple and work out the best manifold install and go from there, if I work out the range I can put together a simple digital reader bits from RS components..
Nice to see another British 210 owner! Are you going STD or at least big-TD?
