Install an aftermarket EGT probe.
If you don't wantto buy new ones you can get non-flight certified setups at a lot of aircraft wreckers for VERY cheap. They also have the added benefit of being vibration proof. |

pre-turbo is most accurate. I find that pre vs post turbo readings can differ a couple hundred degrees.

Pre turbo is the only thing that counts.

I can't see installing that on EVERY car that goes on the dyno ... especially a 2.7t

Post-turbo is OK, if you have experience with pre vs post on a car and know the approximate difference.
For 2.7T it is easy, you already have the factory sensors. Just install a factory sensor and remove it afterwards.

You mean an RS6 wideband? |

You don't need a wideband EGT, although it's beneficial. It's important to not exceed a certain EGT, not so much know all the time where it's at. Unless you have an EGT sensor on each cylinder it's pretty useless for mapping. |

So I made a screw up today...
I was on the phone while editing my KFZW table...
It seems I typo'd a section of the table. The result was an 8 degree ignition timing spike at around 4000 rpm @20psi of boost...
This lifted the heads and blew out both head gaskets at WOT :/
Time to get cracking with my built engine...
Be careful guys all it can take is a typo!

That sucks but also shouldn't have happened. Was it a tired engine, old gaskets?

OEM bolts? New when installed? Torqued with a torque wrench

Yeah I know... It was a used engine out of an A6... so used is used... no way of knowing the actual condition of the internals... Ah well, 3.0 it is! |

Since we are all here, do you think it is possible to wire in the 75psi Map sensor that my ZT-2 is using and run the 5120?
