Really not sure what you are calling an up pipe on a non turbo engine but.. Might try the port already there or do as others suggest. Might try both locations and report back any temp differences so everyone will know a simple truth about the probe locations on a non turbo engine.
As for finding a pyro probe in the "down pipe" which btw is AFTER any turbo is a complete waste of information from the exhaust. It just tells you nothing important because on a turbo engine its after the turbo.
he has an aftermarket custom turbo set up.
and i completely agree about the pyro in the DP being useless, however, it was placed there on a few systems...
i think my old DP on the stock 093 had it there, but i re-built my DP
Only reason I mentioned up pipes and being a non turbo engine was I did not see a turbo mentioned in post nor at the bottom of original posters engine. Might be time to update the sig...
he has until he starts driving it to update...lol
IMHO the only use for a pyro mounted in the downpipe is either for a second gauge to make sure the turbo's cooled off enough to safely shut down, or for a turbo temp monitor...and i completely agree about the pyro in the DP being useless, however, it was placed there on a few systems...
