Since the exhaust gases are hotter would this pose a problem
Mike on my friends turbo race engine, the sensor is positioned ahead of the turbo..this thing get so hot the headers glow red, and we believe this severely shortens the life of the sensor..I dont know how your going to arange the headers, but try and keep the sensor where the pipes merge, but far enough away from the turbo that the intense heat from the hot side isnt so prevalent..If you mounted the sensor on the exhaust side of the turbo, you will still hae to keep it away from the really hot areas
I read somewhere, in a bosch white paper i think, where they mentioned the lamda readings go south when the gas temps are too high. Ill see If I can find that reference...
