I been doing alot of reading on the configuration and different setups people have had for the Turboxs Tuner Reg.
I have read that you can output the AFR to a seperate screen which is great if you want the tuner hidden.
I was also reading in the manual that you can have a Analog input into the tuner such as EGT.
This weekend I'm switching out my gauges (Autometer EGT/Boost/Fuel Pressure) for AEM UEGO wideband/STRI Boost/Oil Pressure. I will also install the Tuner Reg.
I would like to keep the EGT in place but have the output of the sensor go to the Tuner Reg.
Has anyone done a EGT to Tuner Reg?
How do I calibrate the Tuner Reg to read off the EGT? Link Autometer Sport Comp EGT
Where can I find the connector for the Output of the display from the Tuner Reg and the connector so I can have the EGT talk to the Tuner?
I have tried contacting TurboXs on the connector availability but all I got in response was if I was aware that the EGT sensor would need to configured and calibrated through the Tuner.
I understand the Tuner readouts are in Celsius meanwhile my EGT Gauge read in Fahrenheits.
I believe all i would have to do is the conversion from Fahrenheit to Celsius(Gauges maxed at 1600F=871C) voltage should be pretty linear also where 5V would signify 871C and 0 volts being 0C.
Also for those that have installed Dual Widebands.
How did you guys route your wires?
Any special clamp or just used zip ties?
I also understand from most threads here that people favor
putting the Tuner wideband on the drivers side CAT since it runs leaner on full throttle
AEM UEGO wideband on the passenger side cat since it tends to run leaner at 0-part throttle.
Just want to make sure I understood that correctly and didn't read it wrong.

Wow... The Tuner Reg can recieve analog and/or digital inputs - can output them too. I guess if TXS didn't have a definitive answer, I'd just play around with different configurations/ calibrations until I got it to work... Or just run the EGT to a separate gauge, but that wouldn't help with logging...

I contacted TurboXs mainly for that purpose but the inquiry to that particular question was never answered.
Also wanted to see if anyone else was using this feature and see what EGT they running.
I just got the specs of the EGT from autometer and its being read in millivolts so I don't think its compatible.

Glex, I'm also interested on getting a Tuner since the UTI doesn't give you the most accurate A/F reading. Let me know if you find a way to incorporate the EGT and I'll probably do the same.

I'm not aware of the UTEC being able to receive inputs from 2 widebands.
