EGT and Turbo questions

I was wondering what normal EGT should be when cruising. My truck sees 800 850 at 55 mph. I do have 38 inch swampers. Also what should my boost read? I usually only see maybe 5 to 10 psi. I can get the psi up to maybe 20 if I get on it off the line.

I'm thinking of making my MBRP into a straight pipe. Would this help the EGTs? It's already had the cat removed.

Should a stock turbo be putting out more than 5 psi while cruising? I only get about 18 psi when wide open. Any thoughts?
