EGT's a problem??

I am going to stack a DRAG COMP with my Smarty.. Can I leave the stock turbo on without EGTs skyrocketing? I have stock injectors so bigger ones could be a possiblility later on down the road

yes it will get hot! Only one way to tell! Just dont double time (smarty timed and edge timing) and run it hot, it would be alot easier to melt something!

Ok because someone told me that itd be a better idea to leave the stock turbo and just dont stay in the throttle, or keep the power levels down some... I heard it was better to wait so if a get injectors later id be able to better match the turbo with the injectors
