Does anyone know of a good tech article, or a pic series on installing a pyrometer? I would really like to put one in my truck but not sure how big of a project it will be?

thats all i can find really, there's no write up with pics on here to do one one a dmax

 

thanks that kind of cleared things up a little bit? Now here are 2 more ?'S What would the deffrence be in me tapping the pyrometer in downpipe coming off the turbo? Also if I have the PPe boost increase valve how could I tap in the boost pressure gauge

Thanks

 

you can get the t tap from the plunbing section of the hardware store, and orielys carries them too

 

in the down pipe the readings will be a little low

 

thanks for all the help I am going to try the pyrometer install very soon! As $$$$ allows

 

hey i just hooked up my pyrometer last week. it's not very hard. make sure you keep the truck runnin while you are drilling. it didn't take very long to drill though. ummm idk about goin through the firewall. i didn't with either of my gagues. they are runnin through a hole in the door. (hard to explain but it doesn't pinch either of them.) and i think i have a picture of my T ofr my boost gauge if you wanna see how mine is hooked up. you are gonna need more hose. cause i didn't have enough. you may not idk. but yeah. make sure it's all in order cause i had mine a switched up and everything was weird. but they aren't very hard hook ups at all. good luck

 

thanks For all the help! I think I am going to take my truck somwhere and let them drill it. I am just not confident enough to do it. I cant afford to screw up my turbo bc it is my daily driver. But the boost gauge seems easy enough.
