1350 Max EGT?
Nah....
You gotta red-line her in overdrive to do that
Note that the speedo has already made its homeward bound trip back to zero
BTW, both myself and the truck still run just fine.

These stock injectors are out of fuel...its fairly slow-going past 4200 rpm's.

Outstanding! so it looks like Vic's 142 was just blown out of the water!
I trust you are using Z rated tires as well!
Does it take all the toys to reach that speed or just the tune?

That was tuning, water injection, and a straight-pipe. (Not counting some other small modifications to keep everything in one piece in the meantime).
Z-rated? Nope, just Bridgestone Revo's. It doesn't even get them hot
I really feel it has the power to go faster if you gear it up; it will gain more torque as you drop the engine back into its primary powerband around 3800 rpm's. You really, really have to milk it for all its worth past 4200. Kind of slow-going.

Thats the great thing about the USA, not everyone has to "get" what everyone else does.
