free bump and after thought...
In some discussion about the gauge in the 2nd gen tech section, Karack made a crack about turning the gauge sideways for easy physical reference of front and rear...I realize this may be a little late....but I thought it was a really neat idea.
Since you were able to get F and R printed as oppose to traditional L and R, would it be that much more of a deal to flip all the numbers/markings 90 degrees
Perhaps if there is ever a version 2.0 of the Pineapple exclusive dual EGT, this might be taken into consideration?
It may have been discussed already, but I thought it was a really neat thought.
On with the purchasing....

Just a quick update. More orders are coming in, but since we are past the cut-off I won't be tallying them up as before. The GB is still open and will remain so, as long as the orders don't drop off. I will give a week or so notice before closing it down.
I have more gauges on the way, so the two orders I just recieved will be shipped out next week.
I have sourced a supply of colored LED backlights, if anyone is interested. I have some samples on the way and can order more if the demand is there. The color choices are pretty standard: white, blue, red, yellow, green and UV. Price will be under $10.

Howdy Blake,
I've ordered from you guys a lot, always a pleasure to do business. Unfortunatly I just now came across this GB.
How big are the probes? I'm wondering this for fitment in the manifold runners.
Which would be more practical for a turbo aplocation, the high temp one? or the lower temp one? Currently I have a e.g.t. guage on my car, and in the year or so I've had it on I havn't seen higher than 1600 F, and that was on a long twisty road with lots of hard driving. Average reading was 1200-1400 otherwise. With that setup I had the stock s4 turbo.
But shortly after I get home and can actually work on my car it will be getting a gt35r with a mani from www.turblown.net and tuning or about 400hp. So pending your suggestions, i'll be purchasing a guage.
Thanks,
-Ben

The new supply of EGT gauges came in today, so the following three orders were shipped.
• Brian in West Covina, CA
• Tanya in Honolulu, HI
• Raul in Miami, FL
I have one more complete kit in stock and two gauges without the wiring. More are on the way (again) but I may not have them until early next week.
The LED bulbs are here for colored backlighting. I have Red, Amber and Green. I can also get Blue, White and Ultraviolet (blacklight). I can sell them for $5 each.

I really want to participate. unfortunately the funds aren't there right now. I'm working on selling my motorcycle, if it happens soon I'll get in touch a.s.a.p. I'm sure I'll buy one even if I miss the cut off date, how long do you think it will take in the future for an order to process?

Blake,
I just thought about my old probe placement.....they were after the tubo about 3 inches, so im sure that would contribute to the lower temps.
Im ready to order, whats paypal total? 225+8.10=$232.10?
Sorry if i missed it earlier.

For the time being, the GB will continue. We are getting a respectable number of orders and as long as that pace continues, there's no reason to end it.
