But I have no idea what my temps are, and if those temps are high or low.  Has anyone ever measured these temps on a 4 cyl TR, or have any other reference point to know if I should really worry?  I'm also going to be installing a supercharger (the reason I really want to monitor the mixture), so I don't know if that will have a significant effect on the temps.  I want to install the sensor right after the collector in the header.
