So far on my 04.5- no load- 1250. My old bombed 95 can burry the needle @1500 if you hold her too long pulling my fifth wheel on a good grade.

i saw 1600 all the time when i passed people on highway. if i held pedal down to floor for like 30 seconds id see 1750 F . i saw these both on edge attitude monitor and a isspro pyro and gauge as well. as u all know that engine is toast. it had holes through the valves and pistons looked like mushrooms. all because i had poor injectors. if u have poor injectors start shaking your pants.....

Stock 'cept for the 35" tires, but when towing a 10k brick in the mountains I'll see 1300* about where the wastegate opens at 32# in 3rd gear. It'll hang in there at 60-65 MPH on both the Grapevine and Altamont passes for those who know them. Even though there's plenty of throttle left, I've figured that's about hot enough for extended pulls, specially when there's no more boost to be had.

Pyro's in the manifold behind #3.

***! I'm seeing 1450+ at WOT (just passing) and empty with Quad MM set to 0, 1, 2 or 3; doesn't matter. Guess I seriously need to look at doing an intake/exhaust upgrade. Any other ideas?

Wow, you could have bought a low mileage used motor for 5-10K depending on miles and been money and time ahead.

Hopefully your new build has some "upgrades" that made it a worthwhile ordeal.
