Message	I really want to get some EGT's now so I can safely screw with ECU parameters. Would it be OK to put them just after the turbos near the O2 sensors? I imagine that the turbine will absorb some of the heat of the exhaust gas, but it should still be usable, no? Harry (Yellow300ZXTT) mentioned yesterday that you dont want EGTs in excess of 900 degrees, so I guess I would be shooting for closer to 800 degrees because of the location of the sensor? Where is good solid information about doing this? I dont want to put them in there just to say I have them, I actually want to use them...
