So I know that FI cars use the CHT from the factory to make the magic happen (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) (you D/L-jet guys and your mysterious voodoo) , but do you guys also put an additional one under #3 for cockpit info purposes? Does the factory one shutdown the motor if temps get too high? (Now that would be cool)

I like the extra feedback the gauges give. VW just gave you a few lights, speedo and fuel. So I added a VDO brand CHT plus others.
I understand VDO does not make theirs anymore. Folks told me that they just weren't very accurate. I can at least get a sense of the direction of my head temp with the VDO gauge. BTW, the sensor on most set ups is a ring that goes under the spark plug. It was recommended to me to cut off the factory spark plug washer when using the ring thermo-couple. |
