You'll need a convertor of some type though to allow the millivolts of the TC to be translated into a 0-5v signal for an ECU or logger to read. You basically have to choose between a guage, or logging though since there's no way to split the signal off of one probe to do both jobs.

The pineapple unit is good, I never had any real problems with it. I'm running two prosport EGT's at the moment though which are working well. Can't comment on their speed vs. a "true exposed" tip TC (Prosport TC's **appear** to be exposed, or what some companies sell as exposed) but they are faster then the pineapple unit, that is for sure.
Alright cool, I'll check those out. Thanks!

The EGTs can be just datalogged without a gauge and shown as a MAP WATCH on your computer screen.

Yeah, PLX was the other place I was thinking of, I couldn't think of the name. Hmmm.
