Exhaust temp questions...

[kapahi]

I have a H&S minimaxx, banks intake, and 5inch mbrp exhaust and i was wondering what i could do to get my EGT's down..

[van-boy]

what r they and why do you need to get them down.

[kapahi]

It runs around 1350-1400 WOT...I know it wont hurt it but i'll fell a little better if it ran a little coo.ler..

From what I've been told is a complete exhaust system especially the down pipe is what gets the egts down.

I've been told that you will need to remove the cab in order to take off the stock down pipe is that true????

I saw drop with my cac pipe. You could also get a different intercooler.

I just did my cold side pipe a few weeks ago and the Banks intercooler yesterday so im hoping mine are gonna drop a little bit

4" downpipe, aftermarket intake elbow (EGR cooler delete as well) and intercooler pipe, and an aftermarket intercooler will help lower the EGT's.

You can get the stock downpipe out by either cutting it or shifting the transmission over some. I would just cut the stock one out.

What Jeff said, all of those mods will help lower EGT's and are simple bolt-ons.

Another solution that helps a ton is a water/meth.

Also, 1350-1400 is not hot for these trucks. I dont suggest staying at those temps for extended periods of time, but for short bursts, racing, etc, that is not going to hurt a thing.

Is it safe to install the EGR delete without the additional wastegate???
