Okay did some research. Higher compression does run hotter. So if he was at 1250 on egt, is there a likely chance I was running hotter than that?

I've seen 1600 egt in a drag race 5-6 seconds that high is not going to hurt anything. Thats the temp of the exhaust going by the probe the metal is not going to heat up that high that fast. Now if your pulling a heavy load I would stay under 1200 anything over that for long periods can cause damage.

It's probably the new injection timing from the tune.
