EGT's too High? - Duckinator17 - 12-23-2011

Soo, I got the pyrometer installed today, pre-turbo. Took it for a test run and oddly got it up to 1100F pulling a slight hill with my foor in it. Now this may seem alright, but I dont have any modifications to the pump at all besides a removed alda.
Does this seem normal?

Thanks.

any idea how your injection timing is? Maybe you're a bit late?

No Idea. Was gonna pull the pump to fix an oil leak and "mod" it over break, so i'll find out next week. She smokes a light cloud when high in the rev range though. soooo -shrugs-

I wouldn't worry. Though I'd be careful after modding it.

It's interesting, I had the same thing with the stock turbo and trap-ox, once they were gone I would only hit 900-925 on a hard pull getting on the highway. No changes to fueling in between. What are you getting for boost?

Boost hits 14 psi. Turning it down today to see if that changes anything.
