post turbo temps should not exceed about 900-950, pre turbo max is 1250. short burst over that are ok but no extended runs there. Extended is described as nothing more than to the end of the 1/4 mile, 300 feet when pulling a sled or to the top of the hill when a duracrap or cummins is behind you.

its somewhat of a mystery as to what the max post turbo temps should be. isspro should ahve a good handle on it so 1050 should be ok. I prefer pre turbo as it is a more accurate picture of the temp the pistons are seeing as that is what I am protecting with my pyro. but its also a more difficult install so it all depends on what you have. I would go with what Plowhand said!

TJ... Don't you mean Dungamax? LMAO!!

I've hit 1050 - 1100 post turbo a few times but only briefly w/out any problems. I'm flowing so good now it won't go over 900 any more with 16,000 GCWR. But I'm still running stock squirters.

you should be able to do those tows but you may need to turn your chip to a tow setting or even stock depending on the temps. but then you could always do an intercooler to help too. I was only in my IC setup for $250 by the time it was said and done.

I have seen as much as 1350* post turbinator....... this might be why the stock unit failed.

thats about 1300 post turbinator. Same ballpark for sure. lol, Those turbine fins start to look pretty brittle after you run hot temps through it and put some eyes on 'em. Mine held up, but the shaft didnt. I think yours are probably shot and you need to upgrade to that BDP D66 big dawg unit
