Re: egt?
did not wan't to let it out because I know someone is gonna buy up all the probes and sell them on ebay for autometer's price but here you go.
$23 a probe kit.
www.aircraftspruce.com , then you need something to read it.

I use the zeitronix integrated in the wideband.
I really wanna install a knock monitor though.

Re: egt?
yes run water/methanol injection, but I don' notice any difference in egt temps, I do notice a difference in IAT though I've read that honda IAT sensors takes 15 seconds to give data. I am gonna try and data log to focus on the egt when I put the car back together. I have these mahle pistons with some really tight clearance maybe it will change the way my motor runs in all ways.
