some were i read that a non waste gated turbo you didnt really have a real bad egt problem cause they have less back pressure than a gated turbo, but a waste gated turbo makes boost off idle and a non gated turbo makes more on top end

A turbo puts more air in the cylinder.
More air let's you add more fuel.
More fuel means more heat.
More heat means higher EGT's.

The key ingredient here is fuel.
More fuel is where higher EGT's come from.
