if i wanted to monitor my EGT pre and post turbo do i need one of those 2 zone boxes or will a switch work with 2 probe kits? Not sure what the box does.

 

Switch with 2 probes

 

I thought there was a gauge company that made combo gauges and dual EGT gauges. Actually I know I've seen them. Not sure why you would need a switch with that gauge?

 

the dual gauge should be westach

 

Its a westach but they are junk IMO lots of sled guys have burned down running them they just don't seem to be all that good.

 

I am going to monitor both pre and post turbo egt's also. I am going tyo use autometer ultra lite #4344 with an additional probe, and the switch.

 

Isspro makes three.. I have their new catalog, and the part # is,,, R612,, R624,, R624P,,, They are 3" Pyrometers...

 

Just a quick little up-date. I had originaly planed to monitor both pre and post turbo temps with one gauge and two probes using a switch to flip back and fourth. Well I got thinking about it, and since the probe was atleast close to 50% on another gauge, I went on and bought two autometer # 4344 pyro gauges. I am glade I did, it is interresting to match the two as you travel down the road. The switch would have worked, and I do use that on some other areas, but the EGT I prefer to have them both with there own gauge. The autometer pyro's are fast reacting, and I really like how easy they are to read (ultr-lite series). I had ISSPRO, and WESTACH, before,but never realy like how hard they were to see, night time was like not having them. They come with such small lamps, there is nothing you can do to improve there them.

Ynot my isspro with the rainbow face is brighter than the rest of the dash gages, real bright, they must have changed the system.

 

Maybe they did, my guage had one small lamp, the same small lamp like in the mini mag lite. It was useless at night.

 

In agreement about Westach......prettty much a waste of hard earned money. I think its better to do it right the first time - less $$ and hassle.

Look at the Isspro EV (enhanced vision) series guages. These are their newer style guages and are much improved. Let me know if you need part numbers and I can try to find them.

 

Yes, Isspro has the EV line up and they are great. Very easy to read and bright at night. Plus the color indicating face is perfect for quick glances. I like y-knot's idea about two gauges instead of a switch. That sounds better than flipping a switch back and forth while your driving down the road.
