1250 is what the manual says from memory , but its about time at that temp , I do not recall what the time limit is .
From your sig. , you've got the intake & exhaust covered , so you may need to up grade the turbo now .

Defueling limits !! Who needs them LOL. No but seriously 1700 for a few seconds is not uncommon to lots of members on this site including myself. Set it all the way up and let your foot do the defueling.

With the 305's I wouldn't go past 1250 degrees (stock). Don't want to drop a valve seat due to higher than stock EGTs.
