Maybe it's just me, but that looks like a different gauge and manufacturer... are we going to compare apples to apples here??? :D :D :D

I'd bet dollars to doughnuts that they are providing a simple thermistor sender with their gauge...what you would use in water or oil, but not for air since air temps can change so fast. The gauges I have use a pyrometer thermocouple just like for an exhaust gas temp gauge...totally different technology and information.
On edit: Yup, it comes with a thermistor designed for use in liquid. Problem with these sensors are that they respond VERY slow in an air environment. I wouldn't use one in any boosted application, which is what this gauge is really for. Here's the install page from Nordskog where it shows a single input from the sender. A thermocouple requires two wires (alumel and chromel) to get the signal to the gauge amplifier. http://www.nordskogperformance.net/techsupport/pdf/auto/streetdigital/M9009.pdf
