Maybe he's asking what range of EGT an '06 should be running?

I'd like to know myself.

I just posted in the high-pergormance section regarding this. I just got finished installing a Pyro, Boost and fuel pres gauge about 2 hours ago on my 06' and I was quite surprised how high the EGT's got for a stock truck. I was hitting 1000 degrees empty w/ maybe a 3/4 pedal, my 98.5 would hit that w/ fueling and timing mods around the same time but when it was stock it was a challenge to hit these numbers. I only have 450 miles on it so maybe that is why but I would definitely recommend a Pyro gauge based on what I have seen so far. These new trucks must fuel pretty good in stock form. I have an 06' 3500 DRW 4x4/Auto/Quad.
