my turbo dynamics gt30 came with a boss already in the rear housing for EGT sensor but does anyone know if they are a particular size? m16x1.5 etc? as i need an adapter to take my vems sensor

thanks

if it's the same as a wideband lambda it's 18x1.5

it looks a bit smaller but im not certain,

i would take it out and tae it to perteks with me but i only just put the rad back in and filled it with water anti freeze and i need to remove it to get the bung out the boss as its soo tight

maybe il look on turbo dynamics website

it most prob a Escos housing, with lambda boss. (smaller than m18, but cant remember what.

Fiecos Dan

yeah thats a T34 exh housing.

So its for a narrow band lambda as fitted to the escos.

so it will be m18x1.5 then dan as rick said

cheers mate,

will pop too pirteks tommorow an pick up an adapter then get it fitted next time the rads out

Fiecos Dan

No,

TBH waste of time putting an egt there wont read right needs to go in the exh outlets as near the head as poss if you want a true reading but yes it gives an idea does your car run over run fueling just out of interest?

The problem with running EGT before the turbo is if the sensor decides to 'do one'. I wouldn't like to take that risk.

M K

does it what

Rick

You can add on a figure of say 200 degrees to get the actual EGT at the port. It's more a relative aid, you know that if you normally run 600degrees, and it starts heading towatds 800 it's time to back off

rick was correct,

it was M18x1.5

Just need to find a m18x1.5 male to 1/8 bsp female adapter now


yeah it will be more of an idea then accurate,

the vems wideband i bought is a dual gauge with egt so i may as well use it, but im not putting a hole in my tubular manifold yet after paying £375 to have it coated even if they did do a shit job

plus my manifold hasn't really got room to fit it in by the collector

cant you just drill and tap the original bung

ps if you do find one can you let me no where you got it from
