Best matching egt gauge?

[GWJCTD]

I need an egt gauge for my pillar srt-10 pod and what brand is good and matches my white faced gauges on my 05? Thanks And where to buy online?

I'm going out on a limb, but I believe this gauge is an Autometer sold to Dodge as OEM.

Heres a link I found regarding matching gauges https://www.turbodieselregister.com/forums/showthread.php?t=169789&highlight=gauges+stock+match

Something else cool, there is a digital gauge that I was very close to buying, mostly because the digital readout is almost exactly like the odometer read out, very cool. Check out THIS post https://www.turbodieselregister.com/forums/showthread.php?t=139046

Myself, I ended up going with Quadzilla Commander because of other features (more gauges, smaller space, and you can set gauges to alert you sound or flashing light when they go past parameters that you set. Also will keep track of maximums etc. like when you are racing, you can look later and see the max rpm, EGT, etc. that you truck made. It's got a cool enclosure you can buy makes it look pretty sleek when installed on a A pillar.

Oh yeah, I've heard a lot of good things about buying gauges from Geno's Garage http://genosgarage.com/departments.asp?dept=192

and diesel manor http://dieselmanor.com/gauges/gauge_kits_dodge-optix.asp

Diesel manor's URL will take you to the Optix gauges which I've heard matches stock.

More replies on the way, I'm sure!

I vote the Optix!!

 

[oneshotkyle]

ditto on the optix... .

I'd vote for the DiPricol Optix too. Maybe you can overlook my less than poor picture-taking-abilities, and at least get an idea of the color match...

Autometer Phantoms for the day match best but Pricol Optix match best at night.

I installed autometer phantoms for the same reason as staarma, i think they look the closest in daylight, but they don't illuminate the same color as stock at night. Its close but not as close as the optix.

There are pictures in my readers rides of the pillar installed

GWJCTD,



The DiPricol Optix were designed specifically to match the 2003+ Dodge gauges, hard to beat them. Plus the pyro is a stepper motor movement, very qaccurate and fast reacting, all the gauges use 100% LED lighting too. And you can get their plug in wiring harness that has a built in dimmer for each gauge so you can match them 100% to the brightness you want. . I have them in my trucks and have been selling them for years with great customer feedback!

What about my pyro sensor? can i use the same one that came with my edge? I would want to hook it up to my dimmer so will any of these work? and is it easy!









How much Mark?

No, I think you need to install a separate probe for your gauge, You cannot use the same one you use for the Edge. There are several forums on here where you can read up on installing gauges with your dimmer ****ch, they clearly describe which wire to tap into. The installation can be completed by most backyard mechanics closely following the instructions.

My edge is out of my truck,gone,,,,,but i have the egt sensor probe thingy still in my manifold and was wondering if i can use it,if its the same ,or not thanks Sorry for the mix up.

 

[staarma]

The wires are yellow and red I believe with eyelets on them. Any gauge you get should be the same and then they attach the eyelets using something like 10/24 screws and nuts. It is nice to have heat shrink to slide over the conections once you are done. The bottom line is the probe should work fine with any gauge on the market.

Thanks alot

Isspro are a great match. It's what Geno's sells as the match for Ram's.....
