Any street cars that moniter egt's? Aeroforce EGT Adapter? I was just wondering if there were any non-race cars that bother to moniter egt's? If so do you measure all eight cylinders?
Anyone ever use the aeroforce egt kit for their scan gauges?

I don't but I'm seriously concidering it. A buddy of mine installed it into his car last year, and the information it gives is fantastic. I'd have it already buy I need to slow down the spending rate.

turbo and blower cars usually lose number 7. Wet nitrous cars tend to run leaner on the first cylinder.
I run a wideband AND an EGT. you could still have great A/F ratios but high exhaust temps. this could be caused by too much timing, too much cylinder pressure, or a combination of the both.

Just keep in mind that FGT is not the best way to tune a nitrous system. A lot of guys see a high temp and assume that it is a lean condition and add more fuel to it and end up hurting the engine being too rich. A high temp can be caused by both a rich or lean condition so it can be misleading if that is the only thing you are trying to tune by. What they are pretty good at is telling you, once you have a good tune up if there is a problem somewhere.
