Stock guage we all know sucks. Great.

Right now I have a Cyberdyne T'ed into the TB coolant lines, but I'm finding it a bit laggy and want to consider other options. I may still end up drilling the Thermostat housing, but hear me out, first.

With the PFC (which I don't yet have), can I set it to know the resistance of the water temp sender? If so...could I then replace the stock sender with my Cyberdyne and wire both my aftermarket and stock guages to it? And have the PFC turn on the fans and the regular temperature?

I'm not a big fan of drilling & tapping holes.

Tom,
Just installed my sending unit. Not opperational yet, but the sending unit is installed. I took the housing out (did not remove air pump) and had a friend do it. I'm sure you can find a shop that will do it for a small fee. I installed mine just below the water level sending unit where it is flat and easy to drill. It should give pretty accurate readings from there. Good luck.

I see no reason why, if the electric specs on the Cyberdyne sender are the same as the stock sender then by all means any ecu (pfc included) would read the data accurately. If they are different you are going to have to reprogram the PFC to accept the changed values. Sounds like a datalogit is in your future. Hey you were looking for an excuse anyway, right?

BTW either drill the t-stat housing or rig a way to use one of the hex head plugs aready available there. I used the hex head plug just under the pressure cap as the mounting place for my Nordskog (Intellitronix) sender. You will have to replace the pressure cap with one that does not have wings. A little creativity saves a lot of drilling and tapping. Using a brass NPD adapter to fit the sender and the hole in the housing works like a dream, after you cut and tap the bushing to as small as you make it.
