Question should juiced 06 egts be higher than 04.5

Ok, you can see my sig below. On a full throttle run my egts hit upper 1400s - without the water/meth. My father installed a Hot Juice on his 06. Couldn't even hit 2nd gear before egts were over 1500. Before he installed his new exhaust, he made a run with the open down pipe. Still went to upper 1500s and then the juice took over and did 100% backdown. His air box is modded just like mine, and he even pulled the filter completely out to try it again. Still goes way over 1500 really really fast. What would be different on the 06 that his egts would be so much higher than mine? Juice claims 150hp on the hot setting for my 04.5 and 160hp on the 06. Doesn't seem like that would affect egts very much at all.

Ok
I was told yesterday that the 06 has an even smaller exhaust housing on the turbo than the 04.5 and 05, and that is the egt problem. Can anyone confirm or refute this?
