Need help with can egt readings
I have a ms3 pro with diy's beta ls1 harness with 1.4.1 firmware and a can-egt box with 8 egt sensors. My issue is my egt logs look nice and smooth until WOT when they become extremely erratic, and soon as I lift off the gas pedal then they go back to smooth again. I don't know if this is a simple issue as far as just needing to turn down the lag factor on the egts (which I cant find on tunerstudio) or if this is a more complex issue that could be grounding or configuration. I just used a screen shot of the log because if i tried to attach a log it said it was to big of a file (its only a 5 minute log of my sd card). Any help is appreciated.

I assume your probes have stainless steel braiding on the cables so you could try to connect this to the CAN-EGT ground.

Yes they have stainless steel braiding over the egt probe wires. Are you suggesting to ground to braiding?

Not ground to braiding but ground the braiding to the same ground as the CAN-EGT. Simply try to add a wire connecting one of the probes braid to the CAN-EGT screw terminal ground position (keep the ground connection you currently have). If that probe shows improvement, try to connect all the probes.

Ok, I will try that. This is probably a stupid question but what is the best way to connect a wire to stainless braiding?
