never heard of that brand so i dont know. i would stick with proven products ie. isspro, auto meter. every EGT gauge i have seen works the same way, a probe put into the exhaust flow (like the one you linked too). when you mount the probe put it pre turbo (in the exhaust manifold) its a little more difficult but it is a better way to monitor the EGT

What wlihntr said. Also the ebay seller has ONLY a 95.8 rating.That would scare me off.
