Wow. Autos must be in a different league of EGTs. Didn't some factory 2ndgen autos use a 9cm HY35? I need a serious load and/or grade on my w250 - despite the HX35 and other mods - to even get to 1400° ... and i wont hold it there very long. 1000-1200° is all I can get running empty.
Here's a pic of what I've got planned for my Ramcharger. A '95 WH1c. Its going to be a basic daily-driver. I figure I can ease off my foot or grab a gear to manage EGTs.

Even stomping around a bit, she runs cool. Love bolting something on and feeling a difference within the first 50 feet.

Still can't decide on turbo choice.
Non Intercooled, not gonna Intercool it.
Stock non ic injectors.
Looking for a turbo with a lot of boost over stock.
Being I just did headstuds 60# valve springs and 3600 gsk I would like something that has enough boost that makes those upgrades worth my time.
I hear studs can handle 50-60lbs so would like something in the 35-45lbs range to keep it safe.
One problem is being it's not Intercooled the outlet on the turbo in or of cases I'm noticing is down low meaning I'd have to have custom intake pipes to 90* bend up and cross over the head to the intake and fabricated up some sort of intake to go where the grid heater was to have a hose to it.
I'd rather not go that fabrication route due to the fact I'm not a good welder and don't know if many people to do so.
Worst case I can figure out something to do so but I'm pretty much looking for something that has a lot of boost and doesn't require much fab to make it work.
Also truck is auto for now after winter manual will be done.
So need something that clears the oil cooler for the waste gate
Only fuel upgrades on truck is fuel pin, and basic pump mods turn up star wheel etc. also a piston lift pump with 15psi spring from a second gen cummins.
