You can buy them through many aero parts distributors like Aircraft Spruce.
The Pineapple one only reads up to 2000F and is way overpriced. I bought one and could have had the exact same (actually one that reads up to 2200....) setup for less then half the money. Only thing you pay for with the pineapple gauge is the letters F and R as opposed to L and R.
Edit: not to mention it only begins displaying readings at 1000F. Theres some very nice full sweep units (250 to 2000) out there which will give you a far better picture for less money. Just look through Aircraft parts distributors.

Oh yeah, they work
In fact, I'd have to search around to see where I found it, but when discovering this I found the exact guage set used by Pineapple (with L and R letters) for a little over $100 with probes.
Just search through here:

You'll find something. If not, then buy the Pineapple one. Don't get me wrong its good - I have one - but if I had to do it again I'd look around before ponying up the dough.

dont mean to threadjack or get too off topic, but what should EGT's look like at cruise, under load etc. 1800 seems really hot to me, but then again this is my first delve into rotary performance *flame teh noob!*

Thats pretty hot.
A decent cruising EGT at approx. 15:1 AFR is about 1500ish (F) for me.
EDIT: 1600's are not unheard of either, but you may want to feed a little more advance into your cruising areas if you're that hot (1700+).
