Prosport EGT Gauge and Dakota Tach Box
« on: March 14, 2009, 08:49:58 am »
I have a Prosport EGT gauge for sale.  Used about 3 months and works perfect.  I got it off Ebay (search and you will find the same one Amber/White lighting) and payed $150 US for it.  Would like to get $120 CAD for it.


I also have this Dakota Tach converter box.  It will take a alternator tach signal and make it work with a normal tach.  $50 CAD

I will send you the box for $45US.  I paid $150 ++ for the EGT guage and probe off Ebay.  If you can get a EGT guage and probe for $44 more power to ya but I very highly doubt it.

It was run for about 2-3 months.  It was on a 1.9.

did the 1.9 have a serp setup on it? or did it have the old style V belts? cause if your pulleys are the same size as mine, or i can find the pulleys you calibrated it with, ill buy it for sure. i just have no way of calibrating it once i get it.

you can calibrate using the gearbox ratio's and your spedometer or gps.  its not as accurate as using a digital rpm gauge though.
