Nero,
If you quit your day job, it looks like you have a future in plumbing!

Even if it's in the crossover next to the collector? I put it where Wes said it would be a good place. Boost still seems a tad low to me though.Your EGTs will be less than if the EGT sensor was in the manifolds, so be careful if you are pushing 1200 degrees EGT!
The bung is about 10" away from the head, so I should probably add 50-100 degrees to what my reading is? The bung was actually a stainless steel fitting, not brass, that's why it took a weld so well.The generally accepted rule of thumb is within 8" of the head. As long as it's within that 8", you should be good. Also, since I believe that it's also been said that the readings were 100* cooler right before the turbo, it should still be good even if the probe is 12" away from the head. There shouldn't be very much difference in readings where the probe's at.
I'm just amazed that the brass didn't melt away when the welding was going on.
Where is yours again? I don't actually remember...
No It was said to add 100* if the probe is right before the turbo. I think you should still be fine with it 10" from the head.The bung is about 10" away from the head, so I should probably add 50-100 degrees to what my reading is?
