I think EGT is more informative than cylinder head temp. I always installed a pyrometer on my VW turbo diesels, I don't think it is nearly as useful on the WBX though. I have one EGT probe in my WBX. The problem with one probe is that the point in the exhaust system where all for cylinders come together is a fair distance from the heads. I found out what I was looking for within an hours driving time and have not needed it since. I was looking to see if there was any difference between burning gasoline or propane.
