The pineapple racing one maxes out a little after 2000F which is perfect for a rotary. (Remember under WOT 2000F is not unheard of) This leaves you with some options, so long as you don't have the EGT's that will surpass 1800 you should be fine with either or (thought pineapple is cheaper).
Now if you have the realestate you can get two gauges to actually do this. This is the route I did because I wanted peak/warn functions as well. This way I wouldn't have to look at them 24/7 when driving to see if I'm close to the limit. I could just set the alarm and look at it when something's not running right. For that, I went with two prosport gauges. I found after discount that going that route cost LESS than going with Pineapple. But that's up to you.

Look again, the cheaper one goes up to 2000* too, that's why I was wondering what the difference was. It even says right there on the page it goes to 2000* haha. And the Pineapple one goes up to 2000* and stops as well. And I don't really have the real estate, that's why I want to fit it into 1 gauge. I have 5 STRI gauges and 1 wideband already, I'm already going to have to add a spot to put this one haha.

now you said you want dual and datalogging.... HC(howard colman) on the 7club has a great thread on exactly this. dual digital datalogging egt setup for something like 120$ish im planning on going that route just not till i put the single on.... hmmmm better go order the parts as im almost ready to do that.
z
i really need to start doiong theseand bringing a thread over here so we have more tech info>>>>>>

Yeah I've been reading the hell out of MANY of Howard's threads, he's very knowledgeable. My only problem is from what I've gathered on his datalog setup so far, it's kinda out of my league. I fear I'd mess something up trying to do it like him. And I'd like to at least go the gauge route first and add the datalog later, and take the datalog part slowly so I do it right the first time. Know what I mean?
