Before anyone asks, yes, with mods like that, a pyrometer to keep an eye on EGTs will be mandatory. The purists will hate this, but I found the perfect place for this gauge: My 380 comes with the optional exterior temperature gauge, which is located almost dead center at the top of the dash between two HVAC vents. This location will also allow my wife to help keep an eye on it if we are climing a steep grade.

Honestly, with the intercooler, I don't expect any trouble, but this is how to make *sure* there's no trouble.

I will be shopping for an EGT gauge that looks like it belongs. So I when the time comes I'll start the shopping with VDO....
