It does matter. The farther downstream you install it, the lower it reads. Particularly after a catalytic converter or the turbo. That's why the Autometer gauge reads lower and recommends downpipe installation. I'd rather not have to guess how much heat the turbo is robbing to know if my car is running hot or not.
