Default High egts?

I was screwing around on the freeway today and disabled the safety features on my quadzilla. Made a few WOT passes to prove to a mustang that he's not hot ****.

When I checked my data logs it showed 51 pounds of boost,and 1620 egt. That shouldn't happen with normal injectors should it?

are you talking about being able to get EGTs that high? Stock injectors are perfectly capable of that. I take it you weren't looking at guages when you did this to verify trends? What I dont' know is how all your other mods play together with it. What size exhaust are you running? what work with the intake?

Default Exhaust manifold

I have a poly-dyne header up for grabs, it does lower your EGT's this a better flowing manifold. Stock manifold has a lot of restrictions in the casting.

I'll bite, how much for the header? Do people tow with it?

I found someone selling one on Craig's list. Might that be you?
