Greddy 52mm EGT without peak/hold runs about $150. I have it and it is great.
On a related note, Max rev better not have tapped an EGT hole on my manifold, cause I already have one tapped on the dp flange.

Isn't it a lot more useful to check EGT before the turbo?
Regardless Max Rev only tapped EGT if you ask for it and pay $10 extra.
And if they did, plug the hole in your DP and put the EGT sensor where it belongs!
(edit - I think I understand this to mean your EGT sensor is in the hole on the exhaust housing that would normally accomodate an internal wastegate... still isn't it better to have it as close to the exhaust ports as possible?)

Then you only read one cyl. I think it is more useful to read all of them. My numbers are the same as people that have them tapped close to the head... and I don't like tapping fragile manifolds
