hey all
just got the egt sensor hooked up on my A2 and was hoping to compare the readings im getting to what everyone else is getting...maybe everyone could post what there getting at idle vs. around town driving vs. full accel vs. towing?
ill start...
idle around 300 to 400
driving 400 to 850
full accelleration around 1100 to 1200 or so depending on what level i have my edge on (usually 3 to 5)
havent towed with it yet

 

That seems to be about the same as I was seeing with the standard Juice/Attitude and stock turbo. I may had seem a few degrees higher especially with the A/C on. Full blown WOT racing I would see over 1450* briefly.

 

as low as 228 idling the week before halloween ambient temp right about 27deg., highest its ever hit is 1380deg. in triple digit weather WOT, usually cruising on level ground 65-70 egts in the low 600 range mid 7's on moderate hills. But, my exhaust lowered egt's over 100deg cruising and the intake lowered them another 50-80 all around, also increased fuel mileage by 2mpg and made turbo about twice as loud. Now I just need a piece of 5''pipe to eliminate those ignorant baffles.

 

My egts are about 300 idle, 600 to 900 normal driving and get up to 1300 full pedal on the highway thermocouple installed on the manifold

5" pieces of pipe are hard to come by from my experiences and expensive to buy a much longer piece than you need from an electrical supply store.I stole some from work , a friend of mine spent about $5 at home depot and bought 2 4" pvc couplings {4.75 od} and a 4" coupling of a lower schedule to fit inside glued them together been running that for 10k or so. good luck
