Hi bm0
Regarding the EGT Controllers, yes we do use the Aubur gauge.
However we add some extra features. We supply a faster acting Pyro, not the cheap item that is supplied by Auber. We provide a harness. We provide our factory settings preloaded for the Chip, we add a case and we provide double the warranty of the standard gauge.
All EGT Controllers that come from us have a unique serial number so we can track if they were purchased from us so that the full warranty etc can be provided.
Regarding UK Chips. It is BS in the most part (as is info that can be bandied around)
Some months ago we purchased a few Chips to satisfy demand until we got our own PRE COMMON RAIL chips up and running. (NOT COMMON RAIL) And this was for SOME cars only.
This bulk purchase with a RE BRANDING AGREEMENT is what ALL OTHER COMPANIES IN AUSTRALIA LIKE DP CHIP & EVERYONE ELSE DOES. We then on sold FOR LESS THAN EVERYONE ELSE. Others sell Pre Common Rail Chips for $1400 - $1500.00 as you know. Yes they are ALL RE BRANDED, or in the case of Unichip and Steinbayer sell without name change. We still are the ONLY Company in Australia to make our own chips. When we purchased some chips from aboard they were sold at under the existing market value. Plus, again, we extend the warranty whilst providing what we know to be better tunes and better after sales service WITH the ability to fit our EGT Controller to these chips through our efforts to make it all compatible.
BTW, it seems funny how I do not see anyone shooting DP, ROO, Rapid or Tuneit etc for re-branding (and selling at high mark ups) .... seems we are the flavour of the year for being bashed ... and this is from a select few on here. Axe to grind? Sounds like it.
Of course if those wish to buy a chip at higher prices please feel free.
As we know with the feed back we get, our customers are very happy with the products and service Chip It provide. 6, and often, 7 days a week tech support is not unusual for us. Not typical in this business
Hope this helps
Cheers

A bit off topic , but a few months ago I purchased from the states 3 Auber gauges , EGT , boost , oil pressure (all the same gauges you just wire differently) awesome gauge and a good price to . The probe chipit use must be fast because the standard probe I got from Auber reacts very , very fast to the point where the numbers are like a blur when you accelerate. Also CHIP IT rang you guys yesterday about a chip got given the PH # to a local supplier in Foster NSW and they never bothered to call back , might want to look at that one.
