Pyro Broke

I haul every day to make my living. And i need to keep hauling. I just got home at 330 am after making a stop at a 24/7 store. And my pyro died. Wont be able to pick one up for 3 days till it gets here from genos garage.

I probably should have payed better attention to my pyro to see what my egts were at wot, but i really cant remember

would anyone have an estimated time of how long i can keep my truck floored with the mods in my sig before my engine will do something i dont want it to. i haul heavy loads and its floored a lot to get moving. i just cant remember how long it would take to get my egts up high.

Put a 1/2" block of wood under the skinny pedal if you can't keep out of it untill you get a pyro

My guess is you could get hot in a hurry haulin a load. I have a stock fuel pin and 190 sticks and I can hit 1500* empty if I get on it and stay that way.

just be patient towing, hauling a couple tons i can hit 1250 WOT way too easy, just go slow and take your time its worth it!

yeah im sure it broke, the probe went bad on me. so im just buying a new probe, thanks guy, so you think i will be able to hit over 1500 in egts? ive never tried it before so i dont know

also, when im not loaded, there is this hill that is about 1/4 mile long, and i basically have to stay floored up over it the whole way otherwise i get behind grandma and grandpa drives going 30 in a 55, literally. is that going to hurt anything, if i remember right it is a 9 percent or a 7 percent grade. is wot gonna kill me up that without the pyro, its been a while since ive been on that hill so im not sure what the egts looked like. but i have to travel it in about 3 hours. its the most dreaded hill ever, 90 percent of people floor it up there, and if u dont, like i said, youll be in for a 2 hour drive instead of a 1 hour drive

actually the nitrous cools my egts, i shot a bit more than needed, it burns what it can and cools with the extra i put to it. pretty nice with a diesel actually. with a gasser that would fry the motor.

Put your NOS nozzles in front of your IC. It will cool it down in a hurry.
