1997 Power Stroke

How high should my paromenter reach before it hurts my engine? Can I run my Edge Evolution chip at 100 HP and not hurt the engine? I have it set at 60 HP now. I do have 4" exhaust and 3 " down pipe from my turbo, with a K&N air filter. The truck has a 5 speed tranz and 4:10 gears.

Most say never to excede 1200 degrees as for the chip I never owned one so im not sure, but put it on high and see how it acts just keep an eye on the pyro.

get rid of the K&N.... your truck will be fine a long as you don't get the EGTs up too high or the boost over 40 (not gonna happen with stock injectors) so i STRONGLY RECCOMMEND GAUGES!!!!!!!!!!!
