SCTx4, Innovative tunes, high egts?

[Mcdunn516]

Hey guys,

So here is what i am wondering, do you need to install an EGT probe for the 6.4 to read correct reading on the EGT gauge display for the SCTx4? The temps seem to be pretty normal on PRIMARY EGT, for driving around town and stuff, but even on the Street tune the truck seems to jump really quick in EGTS. Say full throttle for 7 seconds, it says im at 1700…so of course i have only done that one time because it scared the crap out of me.

The truck is fully deleted and has Innovative tunes, 6" lift and 37's (right now running winter wheels and tires which are only 33's)

Thanks

What hp tune are you running? What are your egts flat and level at 65? I'm running the 210 tune and at 65 I am hovering around 550 (less this time of year around 500).

Nope we got factory egt probes.

1700 is too hot for the street tune. You either have a leak in the up pipes or between the turbos and the engine.
The other possibility is the EBP sensor tube is clogged.
