Question New EGT's, Are These Numbers Good??

Now that I'm pre turbo , here we go.. Cruising at 70mph : 800-900. Long hills : 900-1000 and WOT : 1200.. I haven't really got into it yet until I at least break it in and change over to synthetic oil. I haven't been running my smarty and I miss it. My eyes don't leave the pyro. Are these number's normal???

Those numbers are without the smarty and comp 5x5. I've been running my comp on 1x2 until the motor has got a couple of oil changes and at least 10k... I don't often harp on other brands, but as for the Bow Tie Bozo's, they can keep their Isuzu ****!!!

Are you running the hrvp and injectors on the new motor? Those egts look almost the same as mine.

I am running both HRVP and 80 HP Jammers. I hope that is not going to be an issue, that's why I'm taking it easy on the go pedal!! It would be pretty expensive to buy a stock vp 44 and stock injectors to break in my engine.. But it seems to be running really good..
