Default EGT sensor

I want to have a EGT sensor wired to my SM4.
What brand and type sensor should I use, and where can I get one from?

Thanks

How do you fit this in the exhaust manifold? the probe seems a bit long to me?

Fits through the gland you can see on the back housing....then has a bracket on the side of the cam cover....you dont have the full length in the gas stream itself.....

To accomplish this you would need the probe, gland and a K type connector....

pic on the car you can just see it at the back....

that looks like a really good and durable thermocouple (unsurprising since it's bosch motorsport), but a type-N is quite unusual and would not be compatible with a lot of other handheld readers etc that are normally type-K compatible (although it must be compatible with the autronic i suppose)

being thick and durable though, it has a very slow response time
