Thanks, Pistonfister

 

Piston,

I use both an EGT and an air/fuel meter. I've found the EGT to be more useful for tuning my car. However, I'm most concerned about what the car is doing at WOT in high gears.

I shoot for 1550* F. Some guys like to go higher, but I don't like to run my engine that lean.

I always thought of getting one. Where would be the best place to mount the sensor?

 

here is a link that shows you how to use one http://personal.riverusers.com/~yawpower/carbtun.html
