7. Run the pyrometer cable through the engine bay to the
place where it will be connected to the Sensor Docking
Station.
• Be sure to protect the cable from extreme heat and
moving parts.
• Use some of the included zip ties to keep the cable
secure inside the engine bay. (You may want to set some
zip ties set aside for mounting the Sensor Docking
Station.)
Tool Tips: When drilling into the exhaust manifold, debris
like metal shavings and broken drill bits can fall inside. Try
following these steps to prevent debris from falling into the
exhaust manifold:
• Use a high-quality twist drill bit and a slow speed drill
(about 500-800 RPM).
• Use a magnetized drill bit.
• Start with a small pilot bit (about
1 /
8
″ ). Then use a full 5 /
16
″
bit after the smaller one has punched through.
• Catch flying shavings as they are cut by greasing your drill
bit (in addition to the normal lubricant).
• Right before you punch through into the pre-turbo
exhaust pipe, start the engine and build up exhaust
pressure (this will blow the metal shavings away from the
manifold instead of letting them fall inside).
