I've looked at those also.
It has a probe with it already you just need to drill/tap your mani for it.
I was wondering about how fast it reacts.
Buy it will ya and report back?

well,i asked what as the difference in this kit and the other more expensive.
the seller answered this:
"This auction includes the same meter as the other auction. This auction has a very simple and basic sensor. The sensor is not specifically designed for EGT application. However, many people found it is adequate for the purpose for protecting the engine. The other kit has sensor that is specifically designed for EGT application. It has exposed tip that response faster than sealed tip, suitable for racing type application. In addition, it has box for the meter"
i am going to try this,lets see whats worth it...

I'm about 10 miles from that company. I'll try to find some time to check them out for you. I like the look of the unit because it's small, has peak recording, and a high level alarm. This week is not looking good because of work, though. Do you have a URL for the "other" kit with a proper probe? When you look at their website, there is no mention of this probe not being the optimum one, but they do sell a clamp on probe.
Where would I get a "buzzard" for the alarm? Is that related to a crow? Ha ha...

they said that for racing aplications the other sensor is better but just for regular use the one they sell as standard is ok.

I installed this digital gauge w/ the aircraft spruce 1/8 K type thermocoupler. It works great and very responsive. It even has a high temp recall button. I would recomend it.

I don't know how I feel about buzzards being turned on when my temp is getting too high though. :lol: :lol:
Quote from ad: It will also close a relay output port that can be used to turn on a buzzard.
