Without a chip, peak turbo boost should read between 15-18 lbs. Cruising on flat highway should be below 5 lbs.

Tranny temps should hover 140-160 empty.

Pyro will depend on where you mount the probe, pre-turbo or post-turbo. It's HIGHLY RECOMMENDED to mount pre-turbo in either the exhaust manifold (drill and tap), or the up-pipe (clamp method). Pre turbo temps for a stock truck with a 4" pipe should easily stay below 1200 degrees at WOT. Normal cruising speeds on the highway should hover around 600.
