I have had both monitors for 9+ months and the temp is always very consistant that 5 & 6 are hotter.

The reason for this is the way the CR head flows coolant. If you have a coolant bypass kit they will all be very close to the same, if not then the back two will be hotter.

When I drilled my back pyro I did not take out the fender well and used a right angle drill with short drill bit, it would not fit straight, that why it is crooked. Now we take out the fender well and can get it straight every time with a regular drill and bit.

I hope this helps

They have a typo there, I guess someone needs to inform them of it.
