yo2001 Posted May 23, 2003 Share Posted May 23, 2003 what's your highest EGT record. And where is your probe located? I would also like to know where the timing was set too if possible. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cody 82 ZXT Posted May 23, 2003 Share Posted May 23, 2003 You'll want to look for no ore than 1550* withthe probe located before the turbo. I put mine in the collector right before the turbo. I run 24* of timing. The cra seems to run best and like that setting the most with the current setup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lockjaw Posted May 23, 2003 Share Posted May 23, 2003 I will have to let you know, I am not hooked up yet. I am in the manifold where the outlet to the turbo is. Unknown timing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yo2001 Posted May 23, 2003 Author Share Posted May 23, 2003 I've been aiming for 1550 deg but mine peaks around 1620 deg. My timing is stock. 20 intital. What kind of probe Cody? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cody 82 ZXT Posted May 24, 2003 Share Posted May 24, 2003 You know the thing that has to go into the manifold to measure the temp. Tempature probe. Thats what they are called right? Also you might adjust the timing a little. The rule of thumb is that more timing will equal less EGT temp. Less timing will have more EGT temp.

yo2001 Posted May 24, 2003 Author Share Posted May 24, 2003 Well, I bumped the timing alittle and my EGT seemed to dropped some. 1530 deg lastnight. (it was cold last night) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cody 82 ZXT Posted May 24, 2003 Share Posted May 24, 2003 Does it run any better? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yo2001 Posted May 24, 2003 Author Share Posted May 24, 2003 Yes, It's got more torque. I just got to make sure I won't ping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SleeperZ Posted May 25, 2003 Share Posted May 25, 2003 Well, I bumped the timing alittle and my EGT seemed to dropped some. 1530 deg lastnight. (it was cold last night) How much timing are you running? Initial and total? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yo2001 Posted May 25, 2003 Author Share Posted May 25, 2003 well, I set the initial to 20deg today. with I think 16 deg advance. (I need to double check) with 7 deg retard under full boost (10 psi) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
