if your in it that hard at 95 that engine is gonna be workin pretty hard and pushing some fuel so it could be fine...i dont know if the new 6.7 run hotter then the previous models but that is a possibility

Yeah... But thats only with an 80 horsepower tune and plenty of airflow... what would injectors or a smarty do? 2000 degrees?

it is the edge. I have not seen an edge on any dodge run cool. Mine lasted a week, got my smarty and dropped 150 degrees. It is not your truck or the manner in which you installed the probe. shed the edge and get a smarty.

I suppose it would be ok to keep the EDGE for gauges/turbo timer/ backdowns eh? Ive also heard people say use the EDGE's timing over the Smarty's, but I dont know about that.

Edge timing is conservative. Marco has done his homework on this one. I would ditch the edge and just get gauges and a smarty. I would not want to risk running the smarty on a timing level (odd numbers) and reach up to do something on the edge and hit a power level on that and add timing and BOOM.
