Seems cheap and looks pretty good. I got quoted $370 for a VDO guage at repco.

i've got myself a digital pyro got it at MTQ it's got a few different modes /memory etc cost $300 i chose it for the single degree increments personally i think the analogue ones are less accurate because they have a needle just my 2cents

Hey 5inch just wondering does that guage do C or just F? I want to get an autometer boost and pyro and it seems impossible to get a pyro in C. Eguages online have heaps and they are petty cheap since or dollar is pretty strong. Can get pillar pods on eBay also for $100-150.

i like the look of the digital autometer ones but want it in C not F

far as i know (i havn't been told any different ) they are in C when i fitted the turbo etc etc old mate at MTQ told me don't get it any hotter than 520 deg so i assumed that all EGT's spoken of on here are in C ??? measures ambient temp too hence the 28

i dug out the instructions as i vaguely remembered setting it up for C and lo and behold it can be set up for either.

i run one of these gauges as well, work very well and havnt had an issue with them.

a friend of mine is starting to supply them if you have questions pm me and ill faward on details.

Auber instruments do a nice one. Just google Auberins and they will come up. It does degrees F or C + has an alarm output. A bit over $100 aussie too which is pretty damn good.

There are a few Autometer pyros that read in celcius you jsut wont see them on US retailer web sites much. If you get on the US Autometer site and have a good look around they are there. Also I think from memory the Rocket Industries aussie site may show some, can't recall been a while. Generally the part number is the same it just has an "M" at the end to denote metric and therefore celcius. Once you havethe part number for the model you want it will be easier to get a retailer to chase it up.

Phantom - 5744-M
Sport Comp - 3344-M
Cobalt - 6144-M

I've foung the VDO to have very slow response and not worth the $$. Ususaly 40-50 degrees lower than the high speed on our dyno, takes 20 seconds at least to give a stable figure.

Joel have you ever had opportunity to compare the Auber Instruments ones a lot of us have sourced from the States. They are being sold here by a mob online too and I'd been keen to know how good or bad they actually are as price is brilliant as are alarm or relay trigger features.

Had a look on Rocket and found this http://www.rocketindustries.com.au/desc ... o=AU3344-M
it's 2-1 / 16". Will that fit in a pillar pod off eBay? http://wap.ebay.com.au/Pages/ViewItem.a ... od&emvcc=0
They say they will fit 52mm guages which is two inches.

Cheers

Rocket industries are the place to go in Australia for Autometer gauges.
The Pyro is 3344-M

Will that fit in that pillar pod mate?

They are generally regarded as the same thing.

2" = 50.8mm
2 1/16" = 52.38mm
