Those are to bad EGT's at all. You can hold it there and be fine, its anything past that you want to try to keep to short spikes. When I run my 6.0 down the 1/4 mile I will work up to 1,600+ and I have done that many many times with no issues its just I would not want to hold that for long because heat soak will start to set in and that is when stuff can go wrong.

Unlimited tow should be the mildest of the three, and SRL will be the strongest.
