no1kicker Posted December 27, 2004 Report Share Posted December 27, 2004 How important is an exhaust temp gauge? I've read that it's good to tell if you're running rich/lean esp for turbo cars. How bout for n/a, and supercharged cars as well? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1990lumina Posted December 28, 2004 Report Share Posted December 28, 2004 I've always been told if your running a stock setup then you don't have to worry much about EGTs as the factory setup should run at a safe specification. However, as with anything I guess it wouldn't hurt to know how hot everything is getting. Especially with turbos I believe they are important because you run the risk of burning up the turbo if things are to hot. As for supercharged, I don't know if it as important because the supercharged into sucking in hot exhaust gases. For N/A I'd say it isn't very important, but if your modding what the hell, add one in that would be kind of cool to see in a W-Body!! - Jeff L.
