This thread has really gone bad and off topic.
My opinion is that coolant temps have very little if anything to do with egt ( I could be wrong but I have never been wrong before Joke ha ha
I use that on my wife a lot.
This is a link that tells how the thermostat works, I hope some of you find it interesting at least

MY EGTs on the highway going 80-85MPH is around 850-900 depending on the grade. That's with 180CC/100% injectors, 66mm holset h2e and a hypermax tapercore intercooler.

 

This one is done until a forum mod decides whether or not to clean it up and reopen it.

Closed.

 

really guys, i go away for a few days and this is how you act?
thanks a lot!
if you don't agree with something said, speak your piece and leave it at that. there is no need to start a peeing contest!!!

 

Thank you for the clean up Tom!

 

Weeee. Embarrassment averted lol. Where'd you go tom.

 

pre-admission testing for the upcoming leg replacement today, and i was on the road for the past 2 days trying to get everything taken care of for when i go down in two weeks.

 

Heres to a speedy recovery...

 

i am hoping for a 6 month paid vacation Lee.
doc said i should be in hospital for 2-3 days, then on limited movement for 4-6 weeks until the wound heals. then physical therapy for 2 months. i should be able to drive an automatic after 2-3 weeks, and be back to work limited duty after 3 months. but since i drive either a 8 speed or a 18 speed, i will just wait the full 6 months and get it all healed so i don't screw anything up.........again.

 

You're going to miss all the wintertime fun though!

 

appearently he is in antartica...lol...

It would be summer fun down there...lol
