Default Performance Temp Question

so with all the mods listed in my signature,when i add the 100 hp injectors and pulling my holiday trailer am i going to encounter high egt's to the point of having to install a water/meth injection system .just running round town i run approx 500-600 so once pulling i am wondering?

hope to hear some good sound advice from alberta

Depending on the spec for the BD turbo you could encounter higher than normal EGT's. That said, it is very unlikely that you would with what I am reading here.

I have the OEM turbo in my 2002 (HX35) and when I stand on it I see temps pre-turbo quickly heading to 1200+ which is when I back off. I also gets way too much smoke if I do that so I try not to. Driving nice, I see no smoke and temps around 300 to 900 F.

Should be manageable at worst,but I don't think you'll have any trouble at all.
