1320MINI Posted September 27, 2016 Report Share Posted September 27, 2016 Hi Guys,Ive been looking into installing 4 EGT's on our Engine, I spoke to a guy who can supply the sensors but said each EGT will need an AMP. The Thunder only has 2 EGT channels.Is there a way of running 4 at the same time? Thanks in advance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adamw Posted September 27, 2016 Report Share Posted September 27, 2016 There are many options but here's some of the common ones:Low cost (2 needed): https://shop.vems.hu/catalog/amplifier-dsub9-p-129.html?osCsid=54a4449aea72777b5c5299e6d2e889feLow cost (1 needed): http://www.exhaustgas.com/ProductDetail.asp?ProductID=1814&DepartmentID=&CategoryID=&RepID=&BasketID=More pricey but cleaner (2 needed): http://milspecwiring.com/store/index.php?route=product/product&path=68&product_id=774Another option would be a CAN based amp such as: https://www.diyautotune.com/product/can-egt-8-channel-thermocouple-interface/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scraggles Posted September 28, 2016 Report Share Posted September 28, 2016 The other CAN based option which is also pre-configured in the software is the KMS EGT Can converter at around 300 EUR: http://kms.vankronenburg.nl/products/accessories-2/can-converters/I've got the AEM EGT Amplifer on mine (as does Rooster), but it requires 4 analogue inputs unlike CAN which need none.A different alternative is to perhaps run something like the excellent Plex SDM-500 dash display, which has 2 EGT inputs and can output it's inputs to CAN.If you're using internal and external thermocouple amplifiers it would be best to do a full scale calibration to match the readings.
