Right guys. Firstly, sorry for not getting back earlier, I was waiting for info back from Mike Rainbird who now tells me the order is complete. There was a delay as they ran short on sensors as they had not envisaged doing dual sensors when the GB was discussed.
With the exception of Turbovin who is in Sweden, will anyone who does not have their kit after the post has arrived on Thursday, please make contact with me. Turbovin will be a few days later. Thanks.

Mine arrived today but, I didn't realise there is no fitting kit or adaptor for the probe? There is just the probe at the end of the green sleeved wiring, unlike this photo which shows the brass adaptor

Cheers guys. Thanks for comments. Everyone should be sorted now.
The location of the probe is important. It should be in a moving air stream which is why I locate mine close to the throttlebody but care must also be taken to ensure the probe does not act as a heatsink from, for instance the warm inlet manifold.
If locating the probe in a silicon pipe, I use either a stainless or aluminium joiner and tap the probe into that.

Why not come up here for a weekend? It will only take half an hour out of your drinking time. Darlington, as seen on Night Cops 2 !!!

Glad the GB went smoothly. I do think it is far better to get factual information and not guess and it is amazing how much you can actually pick up from monitoring the ACTs (and other temperatures).
