GlowShift EGT Pyrometers accurately monitor your car or truck’s exhaust gas temperature in real time.

These 2-1/16” (52mm) EGT Gauges are optimal for any performance vehicle with a turbo or turbo diesel engine. That includes racing applications and diesel trucks towing heavy cargo over long distances.

Benefits of adding this aftermarket automotive gauge include protection against overheating, increased engine efficiency and better fuel economy.

Our Pyrometer EGT Gauge Kits come with everything for installation. You’ll receive a 1/8-27 NPT Type K Thermocouple EGT Probe with a Waterproof Connector and 3’ of Stainless Steel Braided Cable; a 6’ Stainless Steel Braided Sensor Harness with a Waterproof Connector; a 2’ Power Harness; Mounting Bracket and Mounting Bracket Hardware.

When it’s time to learn how to install a pyrometer gauge, we provide step-by-step instructions to walk you through the process. There are handy installation videos on our YouTube page that feature demonstrations. Not to mention you’re backed by Free Lifetime Tech Support so we’re always here to assist with any questions.

Get started by locating an area on your car or truck’s exhaust manifold to drill and tap so you can install the EGT Probe. From there it’s a matter of running sensor and power wires to your exhaust gas temperature gauge location, and connecting to the battery or another 12 volt power source.

With the included mounting bracket you can secure the gauge on the dash, near the factory cluster, on a console, or along another area in your vehicle. We also have Gauge Pods like Pillar Pods and Dash Pods so you can install the EGT pyrometer by itself or with other gauges.

When it’s time to get back in the garage to build a custom dashboard, swap factory gauges, or jump into another type of project, we’re here to show you how to install a pyrometer gauge for your application.
