Default egt question????

i have a 1992 f250 that was repowered with a 1984 6.9, it has a banks waste gate turbo on it that runs 9-10 boost the ip was turned up on it i am pretty sure cuz it would role the coal big time so i backed it off bout 3 flats, it still smokes a bit, my egt's run bout 600-700 normal driving down the road at 60-65 mph but as soon as i get to a hill my egt's will climb rite up to 850-900 easy, i also notice at nite that it is blowin alot of blueish gray smoke is this normal?
