egt set up
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.

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?

Re:egt set up
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.

Re:egt set up
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.

Re:egt set up
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.
