Why You Need This
EGT monitoring isn't optional on serious builds — it's insurance against catastrophic engine failure. Without proper exhaust temperature monitoring, you're flying blind through boost increases, ignition timing changes, and fuel system modifications. We've seen too many expensive builds destroyed by detonation that could've been prevented with proper EGT data. This thermocouple's open tip design responds faster than conventional closed-tip sensors, giving you real-time feedback when conditions change rapidly under boost.
The 1.64m cable length is perfectly sized for most engine bay configurations, reaching from manifold-mounted bungs to dashboard-mounted displays without excess cable creating routing headaches. Whether you're monitoring pre-turbo temperatures on an RB26 build, post-turbo EGTs on a 2JZ conversion, or individual cylinder temperatures on an LS swap, this sensor delivers the accuracy your Haltech ECU needs for proper closed-loop EGT control and protection strategies.
ECU & System Compatibility
Direct compatibility with Haltech Elite 550, 750, 1000, 1500, 2000, and 2500 ECUs via dedicated thermocouple inputs. Also compatible with Nexus R3, R5, and Rebel series when used with appropriate input conditioning. Perfect for integration with Haltech's advanced EGT-based fuel and ignition protection algorithms.
