Default Fuel plate and timing

Had a #11 fuel plate and timing bumped up to 16btc.
Love the power increase but towed with it the first time and was pulling a long grade and looked at the egt Guage and was running in the red....dropped a gear and it went back into the green again but I was kind of disappointed with the fact I had the power button just to much egt.
Any thoughts on where I should go from here

if your still running the stock charger adding a boost elbow and cross drilling the wastegate are two cheap things that will help a good deal with your issue.
