Dual Egt Probes


Recommended Posts

So I recently acquired a Quad with V2. However I just finished installing an EGT probe for my Isspro gauge prior to getting the quad. I'd like to run pillar gauges since I have had them on the shelf. But also want the gauge to work with the quad. Can I install another probe either above the current one? Or install the second probe in the front half of the manifold?

The aft 3 are supposed to run hotter, which is why they are the preferred ones to monitor. 

 

I put my 2nd probe post-turbo and am glad I did. The info it gives me is much better than having 2 probes in the manifold. Post turbo is quite useful for cool down and lugging, both of which are masked by a pre-turbo probe.

@Red Rambler Get the tap kit from DAP if you don't have access to those tools. Isspro guages. Install guides: http://www.dieselmanor.com/diy/CMS-G2gauges/CMS-gen2gaugeinstall.asp There are plenty, just search the forums.

Thanks @gipperkid I purchased my mechanical fuel gauge from diesel manor. I can get a 1/8 npt tap from oreillys. I may already have one, just need to check. I was doing some research on glow shift due to price point but quickly said no due to the negative reviews. Isspro is what I am after. I like how diesel manor says to use small drill bits and step up to a larger bit to keeps the shavings small.

@AH64ID I like the idea of monitoring temps before and after. I just hate to take the turbo back off to drill the elbow. I could probable put a weld in bung on the down pipe.

Yea. I drilled and tapped mine with the turbo off. Stepped up drill bits to the final size. Use Plenty of WD40 when cutting the threads. Use anti-seize on the probe adapter threads.

Do you have pics of your post turbo probe setup?
