I have pictures of my gauge kit in my gallery. I too did not want to loose the handle and what I found turned out pretty good. I did not like the X-monitor because I would have had to fabricate something to make it look factory but it could look cool too.

I also have pictures of the gauge and installation pics for the x-monitor in my gallery. The "in-action" pic didn't turn out very good, but you get the idea.

I have installed a dual EGT guage on my steering column using a Autometer holder. The guage uses 2 EGT's 1 for the pre-turbo and 1 after the turbo. It's from Hewitt Industries in Huntington Beach California. They also have a dual guage with an EGT and Boost. They are great to work with. I too wanted to keep the handle.

They make the guage for many companies Banks included. They also make them for Aircraft Spruce for private airplanes.

Go to their website to see what you may want...They make many different guages. Good Luck

I got new gauges for Christmas but they did not come with a thermocouple. I recieved these items:

1. ISSPRO Enhanced Visability Transmission Oil Temp Gauge, 140-320F

2. ISSPRO Enhanced Visability Pyrometer

3. ISSPRO Enhanced Visability 0-40 psi Boost Gauge (says mainfold pressure on the gauge?)

Since I have the above gauges, is this what I need to order?

lead wire

thermocouple

Since I am using a pre-turbo manifold pressure gauge, I won't need this right?

bushing

Thanks in advance !

When I installed my ISSPRO package, I ordered the lead wire package to make sure that I had enough wire to reach from the thermocouple to the gauge (sender unit).

However, the leads coming off of the sender were plenty long enough to reach the thermocouple when mounted in the bottom of the driver side manifold and I ended up not needing or using the extra leads..

You do not need the bushing if you are installing the thermocouple in the manifold.

The boost ( manifold pressure ) guage is not connected to the exhaust side of the turbo. It is actually installed "post turbo" on the air side of the turbine.
