It is a daily driver. Only thing it will be hauling is @ss. My experience is with Toyota 4x4 pickups and SUV's so the trackwill be a new experience for me, but I will get on the track as soon as summer weather permits.

I've seen comments on other forums about an EGT (Pyrometer)being a pretty useful gauge for tuning purposes. It should be a pretty good indicator of whethertiming and fuel are within a safe margin of error. Too lean or too much timing, and youshould seethe result on an EGT gauge.

 

Diesels need them because they're always in boost and when hauling heavy things youre going to be running a constant 15-20lbs of boost.

So for a DD car and half track car IMO you dont need a EGT gauge

 

Heat = #1 bad for your motor

Especially with a turbo, monitoring heat is the primary concern IMO...

After the pyrometer, I would do oil temp and fuel pressure.

 

So, where would you mount the EGT probe, and what are safe EGT's for a 4.6l 3v?

 

inquiring minds want to know!

 

If you are gonna be hot lapping an EGT is Good for daily driver i would rather monitor fuel psi

 

but i gues you already have Air fuel so EGT is good

 

get an aeroforce scan gauge.... read both IAT and Coolant (or 40 other things) at the same time
