Whats are good egt temp readings when driving in town or under load? What does the temp usually read? thanks

 

Depends on a lot of things, like tunes you're running, tire size/gear ratios, what you're towing a lot of things....

Basic rule of thumb is do not go over 1250* for extended periods of times. Short bursts past that wont hurt anything. I've seen over 1600* a couple times on my race tunes. If you are running stock tuning, I doubt very much you're going to even get near 1250 with it....

 

Thanks for the info. I'm running 35's, Believe it has factory gears in it. Only upgrades are a 4 inch exhaust and afe intake. The highest I had it to so far is 900. Thinking about getting a chip or programmer, something for little better milage and performance. Any ideas or recommendations?

 

Only get SCT programers with custom.tunes and I run around 5-8k around town but I can get to around 1300 with custom street tune.

 

I run around 700-1000 on level 3 with my edge. Gets up to 1250 pretty quick when I put my foot into it.

 

Thanks everyone for your information. I'm all stock beside a AFE cold air intake and 4 inch exhaust with 35 inch tires and a leveling kit. I have had it to 900 with my foot in it and when I'm just cruising its around 400-600. Thanks
