99.5 f250 down pipe

I am wondering if a 4 inch or 3 inch down pipe would help my truck any and if so how.I have a 99.3 7.3 i have a 120 hp diablo chip, k&n fipk,upgraded turbo, and hx cross over hose.I have a boost gauge,and pyro.I guess i should also mention that it will push 30# of boost!

For starters, it may keep you from roasting an engine do to poor exhaust flow. What are your temps now? .

I run about 800 degrees and when i really get on it hard around 1100.Will the larger down pipe help the sound of the truck.It has straight pipe no muffles or cat.....sounds good!

Are those numbers after the turbo? Seems like it would be hotter with the 120 chip.

I guess i need to clarify these temps are with the 70 hp chip setting.The pyro sensor is mounted on the drivers side just after the manifold.
