I'm thinking of getting one of these (for a variety of reasons), and I was wondering if anyone has used one?

My main issue will be the sensors. I don't weld or actually know anyone who does. So I'll be looking at using the following sensors....

This for boost.... http://www.auberins.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=5_23&products_id=201

This for EGT temperature (with the clamp on version )...... http://www.auberins.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=5_22&products_id=69

Anyone see any issues?

There is a little adaptor that fits under the boost sensor so no drilling or welding needed
about $40 I think maybe someone can find the link, Looks neat too.
Will cost bugger all to get a bung welded in IMO

I just drilled a hole in my exhaust (not a patrol) and screwed the bung in. It holds fine if its a tight enough fit. I has since put a tack weld on it for a bit of added strength but it was fine with out it.

As TD says its pretty cheap to get a bung welded in, i got quoted $10-15 if it was easy to get the dump pipe out.

I've got the single units and they work great. I use the same boost sensor and similar pyro probe. Do as the others have already said with the bung in the dump, which is easy enough. I drilled and tapped my manifold and have the pyro probe there.
