We run and Innovate Wide Band with the Aux-box on Hooley's Stude for the air-fuel and it also data logs one EGT. We run another EGT with an anolog gauge right in front of his face with the dial cocked to 1600F in our case. If the dial is straight up and down (1600) he aborts the run or at least he is suppose to
. Without clocking the dial it is impossible to read at speed (over 200) with all the vibration.
After the run we look at the data from the Innovate and make decisions as to whether changes need to be made, but this is data that could be after blowing up the motor, so I feel strongly about the gauge EGT being there also as a safety measure.
We probably have about $900 into all of that, but I'm convinced that it has saved a $15,000 motor. I'll have pretty much the same capabilities on my lakester.
