Just wanna know what sort of exhaust temps people are seeing on their FD's?
Either external measurements on the dump pipe/ turbo or actual EGT's. Thanks |
What does your gauge read in Celcuis or Ferh?
|
Umm, it will read both.
I don't want to permanently install a guage, but just temporarily attach a thermocouple to see what sort of temps I'm getting and purely out of curiousity compare it to someone else's readings. So it could be either C or F. |
my EGT is located at the base of my turbo appx. 10 inches away from the engine.
When I had water injection and shifting at 9000 rpms, by the end of 4th gear, I would be at 920 celsius. When I heat wrapped my manifold, same shifting/gear, I would see 1000+ celsius with water injection. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683517.gif |
Anyone know what stock level EGT's are?
What is considered conservative or safe? What is considered high or on the edge? |
keep it under 900 celsius.
