well no smoke means not enough fuel so it dosnt make any diffrence what the egt is at the puiont. I can tell you that if there is not enough fuel to make smoke than its not going to make the egt's hot enough to bother anything. although the egt gauge is very good to have because these engines cannot handle much over 1,200 degrees for any extended peroid of time. more fuel = more heat& more power. you want black smoke then you have to overfuel it just a little.
