6.7 EGT & Boost gauges

[Unklmyk]

I just ordered a 3500 DRW MegaCab 4x4 6 speed manual and should have it by July 1. I'll be putting my Furd Sick. 0 Powerjoke on ebay shortly.

I would like to add a boost gauge and EGT probe to the 6. 7 since we will be towing a 13K lb. 5th wheel most of the time. The boost gauge is easy but any suggestions on how and where to install the EGT probe would be much appreciated.

I want to add this, dose anyone know if there is a thermo coupler in the turbo? There is 2 wires going into the top of the center housing. On the 6. 7 there should be a thermo coupler somewhere to protect the turbo during regen. anyone know?

The wires may be for the variable geometry part of the turbo.

I believe that the wire for the VG go into the side of the accuator, does anyone have a schematic for these truck yet?

I installed mine right above the turbo - drilling very slowly keeping the bit full of grease and cleaning it often. The temp here is a safe indication of temp at turbo. I think you will find the 6. 7's idle warmer than the 5. 9 (350-400).

Thanks much. I've already got the gauges and thermocouple, now all I need is the truck.
