Obviously, you're over-aired!! More fuel!!!!

Seriously, that's assuming your thermocouple is mounted pre-turbo.

You probably could grind it to a zero without hurting anything. You'll just have to watch your EGT's a little closer.

The 0 will give you more power on the bottom end, but will be about the same on the top end. 1250 is the max sustained EGT's you can run, but you can go alot higher than that as long as you do it for very short spans of time.
