Thinking of using the EOT port for gauges as well just put a T in it's place. To accommodate both. What do you guys think?


Same as ECT.

For EOT I have mine reading through a billet filter cap (available from many of the sponsors) you then just thread your sensor into the top of the cap and wire it up.

For ECT I have mine in the side of the block down on the drivers side jsut above the oil pan. Requires an adapter plug to thread into the block. Other place that seems pretty good is removing the small cover where the EGR cooler ties into the oil cooler and drilling/tapping it for the sensor.

You made mention of an adapter plug for the block. Could you please give me more detail to what type of adapter and where i could get one. Thanks

yup, you will need: M16x1.5 (male) to 1/8"NPT(female) Metric Adapter. Autometer part #: 2268 or ISSPRO part #: R7964

Any Autometer or Isspro dealer will be able to get one for you, such as Adam at FCDP

This might get edited out, but this site seems to have the best resources for install directions online (that I know of) Here is the water temp install pic/directions, Install Pictures


Here is one of Adam's pics of the alternative location, the coolent sensor is the one below the wiring harness with nothing plugged into it,




also here is a pic for the billet caps, I have both oil and fuel filter caps, one is for oil temp and other for fuel pressure,
