When did you start to notice the high egt's has it always been this way, or did it just recently start?

I haven't had the truck but a year and started noticing when I put on the Pyro and started reading the forums. I just thought that was normal to have to throttle down when pulling a load, I just don't think they should be that high in stock form when pulling 9K. how can the factory get away with engine warranty if the EGTs go above 1300 when towing stock?

you might want to pressurize the turbo system to 25psi with an air compressure and check for leaks. also i saw that you chacged the up pipes, are you sure there arnt any exhaust leaks??
