Question Exhaust Gas Temp issues

I have just installed an Isspro EGT in my truck. If I get on it from a dead stop and run it up to about 70 mph the EGT will hit about 1200 degrees. Does this sound about right for a stock truck? I was running a Banks Six Gun with Banks Gauges for a while and the temp didn't seem to get quite as hot even with the kit turned off. I didn't know if one of the two guages, either Banks or Isspro, is maybe reading incorrect? I am also concerned about this temp and what will happen when I pull my trailer that weighs around 12k loaded. Any ideas?

Until I got rid of the muffler and added the torque tube and new filter I could easily hit over 1250-1300 with the stock truck.
