i always thought taht egt gauges were basically a form of a/f ratio gauge, its just that you have to do a little more thinking....

Well you need to think a little bit more. The EGT gauge tells you how hot your Exhaust Gas Temperature is. You drill a hole in your #1 runner and install the probe. This tell you how hot things are getting inside. You look at your gauge and go "Wow thing are hot, I better pull over and re-tune my car!" or" Ahh look, right where I want it, now I can proceed to kill this neon!"

yea but like he said it kinda is an air fuel thing, caus usually hotter temps equals leaner air fuel ratios, not always but usually when your tuning it does
