Multiple EGT gauges/ boost cooler
i currently have an EGT gauge installed in my exhaust manifold, i am in the process of planning my install of the snow performance stage 3 boost cooler
i have 2 basic questions.
1) will multiple EGT gauges cause turbulance and lower performance?
2) shoudl i run water injection through the intercooler? if not which side is the air that is going into the intake after it has been intercooled?
99.5 f250 7.3
thank you

Run your water injection after the IC, you can drill and tap the IC tubes or the Y pipe. I did the Y pipe. You will not hurt anything with a second pyro, you could always install it on the pass side too.
Did I talk to you about the cooling mist stage 3 kit? Much nicer looking then the snows? www.coolingmist.com
There kit looks alot cleaner and you get the PDA... Just a FYI... There is nothing wrong with the snows kit, I just dont like the look of that box...

multiply gauge should not cause any issue. they take up very little room in the exhasut system. also I would run the water post intercooler. I would be concern about the water condensing in the IC from the temp drop. I have no experience with water injection so my comments are just from what I THINK would be right.

and yes i belive you did, i dont liek the look of the box either , that is why i am keeping my gauge pod heh, i am going to see how much better performance i get out of water injection if it is a lot then i will sell my kit and upgrade to the cooling mist
thanks again!

I dont know... they work like a volts gauge so too much draw on one might make both read too low???
