Big-Sexy907 02-28-2005, 07:56 PM Go to a hardware store and tap one in. Perhaps a welding shop could be a bit more help and install it for you. You just have to find the size. Konvict 02-28-2005, 08:16 PM i've heard that tapping in the #3 cylinder at the manifold gives a better EGT reading.

This is unnecessary, if you go catless UP. I just plugged in a 2.2K resistor in place of the egt lead. The ECU sees a normal reading, no CELs. Read the unabomber uppipe faq for more info. |
