Intake Air Temp Gauges

Do any of you know who makes IAT gauges. Preferably White face. I've looked all over here and google and can't find any that I like. Thanks

I'm not a fan of the ones out there either, especially the price.

So I'm going to go with a cheap one from Nordskog, available through frozenboost.com and siliconeintakes.com for $60 just to see how they work.

Couldn't you use an EGT gauge and probe? You wouldn't be able to read below 100* but it wouldn't be that low unless you where idleing.



Just a thought.




On edit I'm assuming your looking for post turbo temps.

i have been looking for one of these also. egt gauge would work but the response time is very slow. there is a certain type of thermocouple that they use for them, i think type k but not positive. i have talked to lazarsmith and he said they sell one but havent heard back from him yet so cant offer much info about it.

I talked to autometer and they said they didn't sell well so the discontinued them and don't plan on making them any more. The nordskag will work although I don't like the style but that and they only go to 300* and I'm pretty sure the air on the hot side of the IC is warmer than that. Also the EGT gauges don't go low enough as I plan to use an A/W cooler between stages and if using ice from time to time it's possible to run cooler than 100*

Your not gonna see temps below 100* very often. Really the only reason to have one is to see how hot they get.

Even with water/air coolers your only gonna see mid 90s if you have a large system.
