Re: egt's pre/post turbo

I wouldnt even consider post turbo.

The reason being is that the farther away you go from the heat source the less sensitive to changes it will be.

In addition, you are checking EGT to keep chamber and exhaust valve temps in check, if you measure post-turbo, you are measuring the temp AFTER all the pieces have had a chance to deal with that heat

Just my opinion but drilling and tapping an exh manifold is so easy, I dont see any reason not to go that route
