Glenn, you will get a report, if I get dad's (sister's now I guess) car done, the last sunday this month. That is if it decides to quit snowing by then.. If I had another one, I'd put it in the downpipe just so I could see the differences. I'm not buying a third one though.
I bet the location in the downpipe makes a difference how much the gauge is off too. I'm guessing if its mounted closer to the turbo it would read higher than if it was 6 inches farther away.

This is my first trip w/ the gauges. I have in the past, taken longer hills w/ my foot in the throttle for longer than I did on this trip.....so if I haven't noticed anything in the past w/out gauges and the stock downpipe, I think I will be ok. I know the exhaust manifold would be the optimum place for the probe...but it is in the downpipe about 2-3" from the turbo.
