OutLook Installation
INSTALLING THE PYROMETER PROBE:
In this section of the manual you will drill and tap the
Pyrometer Probe in the exhaust, either Pre-turbo or
Post-turbo, and then connect the Pyrometer Probe
wires to the OutLook Main harness. Exhaust Gas Tem-
peratures indicate how hot the motor is getting and can
be used to set safety de-fueling parameters (see operat-
ing instructions “Set Pyrometer de-fuel Level”).
Post-turbo vs. Pre-turbo: You must decide between mounting the Pyro Probe either Post-turbo or Pre-
turbo. The difference in location determines what temperatures will read on your OutLook. Pre-turbo
mounting is generally recommended because it provides more accurate EGT readings.
It is recommended that you mount both a Pre-turbo and a Post-turbo Pyrometer Probe if a vehicle is run-
ning more than 50 horsepower over Stock. On the OutLook display screen, Pyro 1 temps are constantly
shown in the bottom left quadrant (If you mount Pyro 1 in a Post-turbo location, the numbers in that
quadrant will represent Post-turbo).
A single Pyrometer Probe is the easiest install, and it is recommended that you install the probe Pre-
turbo on the Ford Power Stroke and GM Duramax, and Post-turbo on the Dodge Cummins.
Whether you mount Post-turbo or Pre-turbo you need to monitor your temperatures; know what is safe
and when to back off. Use the Pyrometer Calibration Procedure on page 24 to figure out what your safety
limits are.
