Hi Nando,
Who supplied and fitted the exhaust?

Also guys i need to give Ian from thermoguard industries a plug. He was extremely helpful when i was doing my research. Good service, great product and well priced. Thanks Ian

100% Ian is a great guy and a true quiet achiever😊
The Isuzu 110. Solid and as dependable as a rock, coming soon with auto box😊
The Range Rover L322 4.4.TTDV8 ....probably won't bother with the remap..😈

Update:
So yesterday i installed my ultra gauge blue. Was a mission, absolute mission to pair the thing with my Samsung s6 edge but eventually i managed to do it after downloading 2 different blue tooth apps.
Anyway my goal is to try and report coolant temp in relation to egts. Today was 29 degree ambient temp and so fsr coolant seems to say between 88-90. My egts around town rarely see over 300 degrees.
For Australia day i will be travelling to Melbourne once again with the family to visit family. I will report on coolant temps relative to egts on the way down.
Stay tuned for results

Good luck with that!!!!
Whilst EGTs will obviously impact Coolant temp there's way too many variables...
Ambient temp, humidity, air pressure etc.
And EGTs can soar in seconds and drop just as quickly, the heat soak will be delayed.
I will be interested to see the results.
For the record - where is your Pyrometer probe fitted?

Pre turbo in the manifold collector. All the info is in the OP Tombie.
I think a 10 hour continuous drive may result in some interesting coolant temp variations. Obviously if it doesn't and they stay relatively cool then im stoked. All i care about is how controlled the temp will be during what will hopefully be a very hot day during a very long trip loaded. If the temp stays within a very narrow range and quiet low then ill make the assumption that my vehicle is running just the way i want it to run. If it runs a little hot then ill work out the best way to resolve what may be a potential issue.

About 70 different readings that can be seen on the UG Blue - but some parameters not displayed. Also takes some time to decide between digital- or analogue readouts - which type appears visually the best for the particular driver. It displays at least 2 air temperatures - one at the air box and the other probably as "real intake air temperature" at the manifold. Difference for these 2 values may vary between 20 to 30 deg Celsius during normal driving - normal load, not towing, relatively even road, etc. Still awaiting my MadMan EMS installation - which would display EGT and can also have a sensor for transmission oil temperature. But would appreciate your feedback as mentioned - also with notes regarding vehicle load, ambient temps, wind direction, speed, etc.

Update:
So today was hot in sydney, around 33-34 degrees.
Finished work at 3pm and had intentions to go home and work on the house as we are still only 3/4 of the way through our reno but the mrs insisted we go out and enjoy the afternoon. She wanted to drive to Manly to get an ice cream. So off we went to get an ice cream.
Anyway noticed a few things and thought id report my findings. Now please keep in mind these figures are relative to my car but im sure you can use some of this info and corelate it back to what effect it may have on yours.
1st: air con seems to affect engine power by about 4-5%!
2nd: air con also increases egt by the same 4-5%
3rd: coolant temp is influenced by engine load more so than egt. Now your probably wondering how is that possible? Now if you have been following this thread you would know that my car runs low egts. Cruising around town below 60kmph i hardly ever see over 300 degrees (pre turbo), cruising down southern cross drive at 80kmph i sit around 300 on a day like today. Now, when i punch the accerlator (with air con on) and engine load rises to around 85% and hold that for say around 20 seconds coolant temp goes up 1-3 degrees, but comes straight back down to around 89-90 in my car. No matter how hard i push my vehicle coolant temp will not and has not gone over 94 degrees! The egts are around 450 to achieve this sort of coolant temp.
Now its only natural for coolant temp to go up as load is increased but the thermostat does its job and literally within a matter of seconds the coolant temp comes back down to the normal range in my car.
So what do i draw from this info? Well some people on this site report average coolant temps of 94-96. I think for this sort of coolant temp there is a good chance your egts are hitting 500 plus. If you have a standard tune in your vehicle chances are that you push "the go fast pedal" more often than i do becuase your either trying to keep up with the flow of traffic or accelerating, as a result you run a higher average egt. Now i cant prove that would be the case in your vehicle but using all the info at my disposal i calculate it as a educated guess.
Some people report close to 100 degrees coolant temp towing, id say that your egts are probably around 600 degrees at some points and averaged very high to get this sort of collant temp. I cant get over 94 degrees coolant temp, thats why i make that assumption.
Also i have a screen shot of my ultra gauge readings.
Hope you enjoy the info and ill keep it coming.
Fernando
