also, what temps do you look for?

i used to run one on my gn and we put it right after the exhaust outlet on the turbo. if you put it on the primary, then which cylinder do you put it on? i was going to get a dual probe one and put one on each bank. my stock motor let go on the 7 and 8 cyl's, but i am afraid to just read those 2 and leave the rest open for chance.

The best thing to do is to baseline your car and remember that temperature, then use it as a comparison. If it gets hotter you know you are lean, colder and you know you are rich.
