what setting are you running? i have an 08 and i normally run mine on 2 (tow) cause i am always hooked to a trailer..75 mph 2000-2100 rpms down interstate egts are normally around 675-800 degrees...when i was out west and crossing the mtns, depending on the load, i saw them at 1400 but i backed off a lil bit with pedal and they dropped rite back down. do the dpf delete, egr delete, and diff intake will help you out alot. and ull be surprised with power difference 2

Do you have some sort of cold air intake. That can help somewhat. If you do then I would just take the turbo off and give it a visual inspection. If there is shaft play or looseness the spool can be affected thus meaning worse efficiency and air intake. If the compressor wheel or turbine wheel fins are bent it can cause it to spool slower or something similar and also cause higher EGTs. Turbo may be your problem but you are injecting more fuel on lvl 3 than on lower lvls so it will naturally have higher EGTs. You may just need a turbo upgrade if you have injectors. I would not be surprised if it is the turbo. Usually the leading cause of high EGTs in stock, stock-like, and bombed trucks because of the inability to move enough air to match the fuel ratio.

I dont think you have a problem, is the 1200 getting on the throtle pretty good? I have a black maxx on mine and usually see close to 800-900 crusing at higher speeds, on the hot damn 225 setting i can see 1700!, but you should see what they run when they go into regen, i have heard rediculous high numbers. I dont think you have a problem, but check out the turbo, and away you go, make sure you air filter is clean.
