EGT question?

The truck is a 99 1-ton 5spd What would be some issues be with 275's and 4in exhaust and nothing else done to it, while pulling a 32' slant. I was thinking heat and maybe fuel psi. but I dont know. I know someone will say get guages so lets just get that out of the way.

I run the EZ/275 combo with a 4". Towing heavy in the summer over the mountain passes will make you it a little toasty but nothing you can't drive around, ease up or drop it to fourth.

might want a boost fooler with the 275's otherwise you'll over boost and the ECM will trigger it to defuel as a result.

the boost fooler will also allow you to have the boost to stay cool.

fuel pressure is always an issue, stock or BOMBed. 275's shouldnt put a huge strain on the stock system, but that doesnt mean the stock system is OK.
