I think that bd diesel has a timer. My brother got one for his 07 d-max but looks to be a pain in the rear to install. He has a fear of tapping into the one wire for the ecm that timer tells to shut the truck off or something.

Not sure, I dont think it is an issue to put it preturbo though, I just happened to have a probe pre and post, so I used post. It takes a little bit to get the temp right, but it is worth it IMO

Because it is measuring the temp of the turbo output rather than the exhaust temps. The way it is explained is that EGT's are best measured pre-turbo while driving because it shows what the engine is doing. At idle EGT's in the exhaust manifold quickly drop, while post-turbo they more closely reflect what is still going on in the turbo.
