what programmer are you running, you can also do the zoodad mod, it helps let more air and helps out a little. just need some more info to help you out man, are these egts pulling, or just driving.info such as this

racing is the key word to your problem, they will get that high when running like that or towing.. you will be fine as long it is not for an extended period of time.. but water/meth, bigger intercooler, will help out a lot with egts. but the zoodad mod is cutting a hole in front of the air box inlet to let air go straight into the intake.. i can get you some pics if you want.. i know when i was testing mine on the 1/4 my egts got that hot for a little bit as well.
