installed gauges

well I just installed my 3 guages I like them. not too bad putin them in just took my time with them. tap the egt and vac it out felt like 20 min then put every thing in
took it for a drive and
was reading about 20 on boots
140 on tranny but took about 5 to 10 min to get there
egt ran at 200 at a idle got on it driving and ran up to 1200 untill it shift and then down to 600
I was wondering if that is normal to run that high when flooring it. every thing else seems good to me
