DeTree, I hope you don't get offended, but I'm having a hard time trying to figure out what you're asking.

 

Well dpeneds, what do you do with your truck? Do you tow at all, or just a daily driver? Id recomend stepping up the turb then you can do more fueling. Injectors now would just be more heat. If you tow look at the 62-12 or 62-13ss, if not towing get the 62-14. That should get you more wot time. You can stay at 1350+ for a couple seconds and i wont hurt it, but dont go longer than 30 seconds.

 

she is a daily driver but I load a 1800lb slide in and tow a 18 foot princecraft boat on the weekends

 

just asking what mod would help reduce the egts....they are not out of hand but would like to have a little more wot time....no offence taken

 

Got ya.

If she tows well with reasonable egts why worry? WOT runs at 1350 aren't bad, but I'm speaking from a drag racing perspective here. I'm 1350 at the 1/8..

More air is always nice, a 62/ 12 or 14 has been a great choice for many. With the auto and towing, I would look at the 12 housing.

Injectors will had more heat to a certain degree, pun intended... If you have stock injectors and want a little more punch, look at the Bosch RV275 injectors.

 

How much boost are you seeing?

 

23 to 25 psi at wot......she jumps to 1350 degrees and will keep climbing if I stay in it......which I don't

 

add a tad more air on your stocker and see what it does. if you still need more air a 62/12 will work.

 

23 to 25 psi at wot sounds low for your mods, do you have a boost elbow installed? A lot of guys are running up to about 34-35 with their stock turbos. I'm not saying a bigger turbo isn't in your future, but your stocker should be doing better than that. Just my $.02

 

so if I was to get My boost up in around 30.....it would help the egts?

 

more fuel w/o additoinal air = heat

more air (not necessarily boost) for the same amount of fuel = cooler EGTs

dont add injectors as that adds fuel and will in-turn add more heat. bump the boost to 30psi and take a look at EGTs. if still in trouble, downgrade your fuel (turn off the Edge) or add more air (bigger turbo).

 

To a certain degree, yes. More air will cool it down.
