those who tapped the throttle body hose

What are your water temps in comparison with your power FC? I'm finding my water temps to show from 3-5 degrees less than the stock sensor.

I also find that with the stock sensor when the car gets turned off the water temp rises (heat soak), where the throttle body location never rises from that point and actually begins to drop.

Just curious what everyone else has experienced.

I put my water temp sensor in the coolant fill neck thingy. it gets pretty bad heat soak there, but once you crank the motor over the temp goes down again. from 220ish to 175ish in a matter of seconds.
