Stock 04.5 will see 1400 so I've consistently pulled long grades 1400-1500 for the last 130,000 and still going strong. Highest I've seen is racing and I can peg the 1600 degree guage.

I used to barely get up to 1300 with my Flux 2's, now I see just under 1600 max

I bounced off 1,450 a few times pulling 11k# up the grade to Mammoth. Pyro is pre turbo in the manifold.

How do you figure that my pyro is installed incorrectly or faulty or that I dont push on it hard enough???

Just because I designed and built my air/fuel system appropriatly and use the right Smarty settings so that I dont have high EGT's somehow I did something wrong??

I dont see your logic or methood.

1500 all the time on dynos/strip.

1350-1400 for 18 hrs straight once...pulling 25k. Lets just say that was the end of my A5k...but the engine is fine.

1350-1400 not exactly sure, pretty good grade, BDTD on 2, turned down to 1 on way back only about 1200. Don't push it hard, especially when loaded.
