My truck empty Boost 5-30 psi. EGT has never been over 1200F but i don't tow.

I would really start getting nervous if you were in the 1400 range for more more than a couple seconds, loaded down pulling a hill, maybe somebody else has a different idea. Highway cruising I stay around 700

I just installed them yesterday.... Yes I am using the glowshift piller... Looks good I modified a little bit. I like the color option. Other than that to soon to tell. How about you?

I pull a 38 footer fith wheel when fully loaded is around 15 thousand pounds. With my PPE set at the 90 horsepower tune when cruising im at around 10 lbs of boost but can easily get up to 25 lbs when i get on it. My egts range from 900 to 1100 degress while cruising. Going up hills ive hit 1350 degrees but i wont push it any further than that just to be safe.

I have found when my egt climbs If I shift to manual and shift down a gear to get the rpms up the egt will fall right back down. I hate to see 1300 and have my alert set at 1250 to remind me to shift down to manual.
