Re: Temp sensor/gauge not reading
Hey Jesse, That is about where my temp gauge needle sits when driving around. I would say you are within spec. We really need to get together. Now that my life is getting back to normal with the strike being over I should have some more time to interact online, and in person. Let me know what EGT gauge you end up with as I want one as well.

Hey Chris,
Glad you're back to work man. I just ordered this for the EGR delete: http://www.ebay.com/itm/141285989830 and I was probably going to go with the Auber 1812 and install it either where the clock is or where the ash tray is.

Re: Temp sensor/gauge not reading
Just to add some info:
1-If you buy a Hyundai thermostat the opening temperature is slight different than OEM so you may expect a different behavior of your dash needle
2-I did had to changed my radiator (was clogged with hard deposit at the bottom) to a new one and the needle (with an OEM Thermostat) do seems to be now more sensitive than before so if your needle is barely moving that is a good thing to look at your radiator too
