Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) New guages=New ?'s

[Ram Medic]

Finished guage install. Not a hard job just takes a little time. After driving here is what I see. I have not been able to make over 1000* EGT Temp. I figured with the #8 plate and stock exhaust w/o muffler I would have EGT problems. I have hit 34 psi boost during wide open throttle. This is all unloaded. I have not yet pulled my camper since guage install, will do that this weekend. Just curious what you guys have to say. Normal driving EGT around 500 to 700. Thanks for your input. BTW, pyro is pre turbo.

I think the 1000* is about right. That will change when you put a load on it.

I think your fine with those temps. Your timing is set to 16* I see, so that would explain why you have moderate EGTs with that #8 plate.
