Are any of those of the EGR pipe?

Nope, my EGR was removed. That would have been fun to see, though.
Feels like I'm looking at some forensic photos or something!
Neat
That's cool as s***! Is that a IPhone app? I think that would be the cats ass for tracking, wheeling, and stalking!!

I actually got it out to check for brake drag, if a brake is dragging it's way brighter than the others. This works a lot better than touching the discs and seeing which one burns you more.
It's also nice to see if the radiator cap is working, if and when the thermostat opens, and how well the cooling system as a whole is operating.
It is the cat's ass! Unfortunately it's a bit more than an app, it's a special thermal camera. Mine is a FLIR Ex series with 320x240 resolution. That doesn't sound like a lot of pixels, but in thermal it's plenty of detail.
Here's the view off my back porch a few minutes ago, in "visible light":
Here it is with the thermal camera:
Of course, if anything hot like a person was out there they would light up like the sun!
Another FJ80 shot: (This time, nice and cold!)
My hand, again in pitch black:
Pretty awesome, you need to find a friend with a 1FZ.
Or if he's just screwing a goat out in a field............
That's actually really neat....I was gonna say cool, but it's really hot, but I think I'll settle for NEAT-O Man!
I need that cause I do have a RR brake dragging. But I want to confirm that it's not actually the LR brake not working.

You KS boys and your goat pluggin'
Naaaahhhh. Just the sheep.
that FLIR stuff is great, when the price comes down it could do really well for helping avoid wild lift at night, a little heads up display and you'll see the moose long before he decides to run out in front of you.

Wow, always forget how hot the cats get. Until I have to climb under them after shutting off the rig ofc.

Why is everyone cooking on the manifold when the muffler is 238°F!
Explains the hot floorboards for sure.
I got 160°F at the rear muffler when looking at adding gas cans underneath with a cheap point and shoot IR.
IC engines are so inefficient.

I know, right?!?!?!
I'm installing my Nuclear Fusion engine next week. It's MUCH more efficient!!!!!
