It measures Turbine Inlet Temperture, on a turbojet, kinda of like The EGT or Exhaust Gas Temperture for a naturally aspirated piston engine.

Donald,Thank You very much for the reply..........and reading through the filter :( I found a pretty neat site that explains different Turbine types and terms here,,,,,,,,,http://www.free-online-private-pilot-ground-school.com/turbine-engines.html

T.I.T. gauge is for the piston engine exhaust temperature at the inlet of the turbocharger. turbocharger inlet temperature. similar in lettering to the I.T.T. Inter-turbine-temperature instrument in a jet turbine.
