EGT or AFR on an Incon TT SET UP ? Hey guys im about ready for my fuel systems upgrade on my 02 35th LE SS ICON TT setup and was looking at my buddys 98 identical set up and he has his FI fuel regulator mounted in the rear above the rear end ,like below ,behind the rear sit and when i asked him how he adjust for the wheather like summmer and fall,he said with his tune ,he leaves it alone year round and mybe im old school owning a 87 GN and a 95 FI supercharged Z28 I would adjust with my EGT gauge, FINE TUNE !I think i would add fuel in the hot summer and take out in the cooler late fall or vice verce,and i just wanted to know if this is old school or can i still fine tune on my 2002 useing a EGT gauge or will my computer do this automaticlly with the inlet air temp and MAF? just wondering if any incon guys were useing a EGT or AFR gauge for fine tuning or had on there rides just to know where things were at ! Me personally,I always fine tuned with a EGTat WOT anyways if any incon or TT guys are useing a egt,PLEASE let me know wheres the best place on these manifolds for placement before I reinstall this almost ready K member LOL!! guys ar

I tune with a LM1 afr kit and it works fine. I used an Incon kit with the reg at the back and then later moved it to the front. The front location is much better since you can adjust it for the pressure drop the feed line sees from the filter to the rails....can't do that accurately with the reg mounted at the back.
