Ok, I want an EGT Gauge in my overhead. I am also installing the Banks Ottomind w/PDA. I am aware that I will have to attach a thermo to the Banks, the questions are:

Can I run a 2nd Gauge off the same thermocoupler? ie Banks PDA and an autometer?

IF NOT, what are the recommendations for where to hook the banks in, and where to hook in my autometer in the OH console?

I have the same issue with the boost gauge, however, the Banks system uses the MAF sensor for its reading, so I dont have and ??'s about that one.

Thanks in advance....

X2 on this. I have the six-gun w/pda, but would like to install EGT & boost gauges in the A-pillar.

It will work fine to tap off of the existing one. It uses resitance to get a reading. Tapping into that wire will not affect the resistance to the Autometer gauge.
