Bad Injector ?

I doubt it's the Pyro. Autometer does not make junk plus I am getting a decent haze from this thing. It won't run 1000 deg at half throttle but I can get to 1000 while accelerating . I should take the truck for a cruise with my video camera. This all started after the Heath reflash . I really think Bill gave it too much fuel.

Kenny mine shoots up to 1000 no prob and up to 1300 slowly with my foot in it at 18/20 lbs. of boost. Even faster when I'm towing. I keep it around a 1000 with the right foot and 1/2 to 3/4 throttle. Once I can get a DE on it it will drop I'm sure. BTW that is on the hottest tune dumping fuel and lots of timing. Stock tune I can't get it to go over a 1000.

Took it for a ride tonite, 45* out and boy did it run like ten good men right up to 100 mph at 20 lbs. and 1300* egt.
cold air + lots of fuel and timing = FFFAAASSSSTTTT.

OK so basically Bill probably gave me a hotter tune than I wanted. he pretty much said that when last I was able to get ahold of him. I had said a towing tune but I think he misunderstood and gave me a Hi Per tune. I will say the truck runs like a raped ape. Just the engine is loud compared to my burb. It sounds more like my CUCV, very noisy under light throttle but goes away under heavy throttle. It's running fine latley. The smoking went away. Could have been a dirty inj . I have not been using the truck much since camping season ended. Been driving the Burb and the CUCV.
 
yor probably getting high IATs with that much boost which would contribute alot to your EGTs

The exhaust is my biggest culprit right now, W/M and DE should put it in line.

Also cold air intake I 'm making and electronic waste gate control on the cross over should take care of it.

I should be able to keep the boost level up while lowering the back pressure with the waste gate plumbed from the cross over pipe into main exhaust pipe, keeping velocity up and not choke the turbo.

Anyway just something I'm going to try and if it works the way I think it will I'll post the install and results.
