That's too high for all the air a 38R can supply. Given the recent work I'd look at the collector to turbo connection. Can you get a pic of that clamp?

A friend and fellow member upgraded from E99 to L99 last year, and he had high EGTs with low boost after the upgrade. It turns out he failed to upgrade the v-band clamp while we was at it. Many have had issues with getting the registry post on the baby's butt lined up with the turbo inlet, and it leaves a gap there.
What's your boost and backpressure, and did you verify a good lock at the collector?
