Superchip and egt's

With my superchip i'm running 1400 degrees and 43psi at 3/4 throttle, when i mat the go peddle the wastegate opens, drops the boost to 25psi and the pyro pegs. Would a boost fooler help with the egt's?

Sounds like your waste gate is hung open...

If the wastegate was stuck open i wouldn't make that much boost. I'm just thinking if the wastegate stayed closed i would stay around that 1400 degree mark. I'm getting close to boost pressures that would require head studs and hoping the boost fooler wouldn't push me over that line.
