Default 2007 lbz egt parameters

I recently bought a 2007 duramax lbz and am preparing to install an edge products programer. I want to get the biggest bang for my buck but do not want to tear anything up in the process. I would like to know what the maximum egt and other parameters are for a stock lbz. I don't mind pushing it to the limits, but I don't want to flirt with disaster either.

Duramax's have gone well into the 2000* before.. I personally wont take my LBZ past 1500 for more than a 1/4 mile.. But even my big tune wont go over that.

1350* is the max sustained temp the dmax can handle.
