Best place for the pyro thermocouple is in the exhaust manifold.



The white tube is my oil pressure gauge, the black tube is turbo boost.

As you can see this is on an ATS turbo, the place to hook the turbo boost gauge up has a 1/8" pipe plug in it from the factory. A Tee in the oil line let me have both the stock gauge and the manual gauge working.
