Apparently, like the FD, the RX8 runs a constant flow heater system...the FC however, does not.
Since flow can be cut off, using that adaptor would work poorly, especially if placed in the return line.

I planned in just running it in the line below the intake manifold. I have coolant flow deleted form the intake, so I can just put it into the loop the I have across the top of the keg, right?

This is seriously the stupidest god damn thing ever. None if the fittings work anywhere in this car.

Stupid stupid stupid... I'm about to just throw one into one of the hoses and say **** it. My Haltech will damn near shut the car down if I overheat anyway..

I'm already using that sensor. This was for my in dash setup. I tapped into the front if the water pump housing and put the sender right across the Haltech sender. So they should read the same temps give or take.

Easy ****.

I was mistaken. I don't have a mechanical sensor. I bought short sweep ones.
