There is no direct EGT to fuel screw relationship that I am aware of.
The fuel screw changes the fuel pressure inside the IP, so several other things could effect the EGT just as much as the fuel screw does.

Also the fuel screw does not move the linkage.
It has almost no effect on the idle fuel delivery.
The screw is more along the lines of a max fuel delivery screw.
The biggest difference is noticed at wide open throttle position.
Since the max fuel delivery is increased, you will notice you can run your max EGT you can now run with it floored at a lighter throttle position.
