Have Pictures/Tips of EGT Install ??? Please Post !

I'm looking to install Defi EGT and Boost Gauge and will post once it is done, but does anybody have any tips on how to route wires for egt to passengercabin etc...
as well as weather to drill and thread or weld a bung into place !? Also where did you place the sensor in Downpipe or further back !?
Any tips would be greatlt appreciated... Other than the welding I'm going to do this on my own...

Derek

Dude, sorry to see no one helped you out...

I have the Defi EGT too. I had my mechanic drill and tap my DP when he installed it for the EGT sensor...It's placed about 4" away from the turbo manifold. General rule is you want to stay pretty close to the manifold...I think no more than 6" or so...I drilled a 1" x 1.5" hole right above my clutch in the firewall and ran all my defi wires through there...Boost, EGT, Oil temp, water temp....I took the EGT wire up the passenger side then ty-wrapped it along the rails that run across the firewall. I mounted the Defi computer on the drivers side kick panel...I had to lengthen the defi gauge wires a bit. other than that pretty easy.
