i bought a double one from maplin thats back lit and can measure up higher than those 40 quid ones

and its only 20 lol

just extend wires with a bit of bell wire and u get either in and out of intercooler or out of cooler and outside temp

I guess that is a yes answer to the temp question. A before intercooler and after intercooler temp would be nice. Can't I just get a temp gauge and stick it in the intercooler hoses?

My friend used a chicken thermostat on his scooby ( :roll: ) but it did work very well.

Whats the highest the temp gauge will need to read to?

Cuz i have a top mount, and i'm constantly worring about the heat soak.

it can be wired into the 12 volt from car

i havent had proper time to test this one etc so cant guarantee it can take pre IC temps ok but its 100% fine for after the IC
