IMO every 914 should have a CHT gauge. Every. Single. One. That is the measure of your heads and it changes WAY faster then oil temps. Dash gauge is run from a ring terminal on the spark plug off Cylinder 3 - not the stock location. My ECU uses the stock location for warmup enrichment, but the location is not as accurate or as fast to change. I track AFR as well, but I don't have a cabin gauge for it. The ECU watches that and I'll pick it up in the logs, or I can plug in the shadow dash if I want to see it. Zach I cannot argue this and have been considering one for sometime now. All is good (as far as I can tell) no pinging, plugs look ok and my cars never see a track. I have one that fits in the stock CHT sensor for the stock FI system location, but have heard/read these are inaccurate. |
