you should really have a pre-turbo probe. pre-turbo temps will be a fair bit warmer.
not saying post turbo temps aren't handy to know, but pre-turbo is what you should watch more. some guys do run both probes.

I might try a different pyro gauge and/or probe. If it's smokin' it should be making heat! Pre turbo is a better idea as it is closer to actual heat coming out of the cylinders. Filters are always a good place to start.
