Default EGT and Wideband tap ?

so how many people have there EGT probe in the dp ?? and how accurate are the readings compared to having it in the manifold ?

also.. for the Wideband bung.. is there a distance in the dp that should be followed ?

The turbo adbsorbs a lot of the heat it won't be accurate at all. I'd move it to the manifold.

I have it tapped in the dp at the flange where it meets the turbo.... I wouldn't know how accurate it is compared to 3rd runner.... but it reads fine, just a little slow moving but thats probably because its a gauge and not digital

EGT should be on #3 because its the hottest cylinder and distance from the head is determined by your primary size. It should be half the diameter of your primary from the head.
