I HAVE A AEM EGT SETUP IM LOOKING TO GET INFO
ON WHAT IS A COMFORTABLE EGT TEMP.......... IS THERE
A CETAIN TEMP I SHOULDNT GO PASS?

81.5MM, 11:1CP TURBO MOTOR ANY INFO
WOULD BE GREAT IM NEW TO THE WHOLE EGT THING

 

NICEEE DAWG

 

do you have the 4 egts? how is it? all i know is the hotter the leaner....no more than 1500f

 

Yea I have 4 egt's, but yet to make use of them just info first on some temps

 

thats wat i wanna run on mines...how much did it run you for the box and 4 egts?are u getting temps from 4 gauges or tru laptop? you should contact a tuner or one of those tuning books...also try google...

 

gonna bring this back. does anybody have any info they would like to share about egts and tuning? what are good numbers for diffrent fuels, maybe some tricks to keep them were you want them. and also does anybody know what weld bungs are needed and were to buy them? thanks. i just bought the aem 4 channel egt setup and im running aem v2 with the AQ1 data logger

 

The hotter the EGT does NOT mean its leaner< actually its fatter cause the probe in the pipe. Keep it under 1600-1700 and u be fine.

 

1600-1700! i know this isnt a diesel but a diesel will melt pistons alot beefier than my **** at 12-1300

 

the pistons wont melt at 1200. i usually wind up at around 750c or around 1400c at the end of a dyno pull.

egt isnt necessarily the best for afr tuning, but it can definately let you know when you've had load on the engine too long and need to get out of the throttle. even well tuned cars can have excessive egt if you are in it too long.

as said, stay below 1600f and you are ok

 

lets say im going down the track and the aem sees it getting to hot. can the aem do something to cool it down without having to let off the trottle in the middle of a run?

 

if you had the EGT kit that i put together in my car, it has a programmable high warning output u could wire to do whatever you like.

 

if you don't mind me askin what egt kit do you have

 

Yes the aem ems can correct fuel parameters up to an extent based on what you program it to do if you have the egt's wired into the aem ems. It cant do individual cylinder adjustment though. At least not the series 1. Dont know about series 2. But you can program it to add a certain percentage of fuel dependant on egt temps.
