To install or not to install????

Heres the deal i have a set of DDP stage 3 110's sittin in the box and i'm itchin to put them in but i'm scared to because i don't wanna see egt's through the roof. Does anybody think i could get away with puttin them in with the other things in my sig. I dont tow that much anymore and if i do it is usually just a car or truck (5k or so). Any thoughts would help.

i would say go for it! i put some 140's(like DDP4's) in my 12 valve and it increased the egt significantly, but not to the point where i cant drive it.... to help combatt the egts i built my own water meth injection system

put them in... i control egt's with the pedal and it works fine for me. 1/2 pedal with my ddp4's is about WOT with my stockers. just because you have it doesn't mean you need to use it ALL the time.

i've been told our stock HY turbo can handle 100hp over stock so do it but dont drive it like you stole it until your turbo goes in, & ya i'd turn down the comp so the egts are in check ...
