What temps do you think the 6.0L and the Torqshift can work safely in?

Water Temp
Trans Temp
EGTs
Oil Temp
Boost Levels
etc?

Lets hear them boys

My nexus gauges go red when:

Water Temp - 210*
Trans - 165*
Boost - 35psi
EGT - 1350*
 
That trans temp seems loooooooow to me, the others are right on.
 
its always sits around 155-162* for me thats on 38s without gears...i know, i know i need gears
 
Boost- 32ish PSI
Trans- 135-145* usally(unloaded)
EGT- 1150* is the highest, but I'm untuned
Water- Couldn't tell ya don't have an aftermarket gauge
 
The trans without a trailer on it runs pretty cool. The aux cooler in the front only comes into play at 180+. Water temp for me is usually in the 190-220 range. Oil temp it normally about 10 degrees higher than the water temp. Pyro is about 700-800 cruising and up to about 1350 full into it.
 
my trans temp varies with the outside temp and like doug said..if i am pulling a trailer or not.

The other day while pulling almost 8 tons plus trailer it was around 180*
oil temp was around 220*
water temp was about 230*
My EGT's vary since I am running 190's
boost is around 10psi +/-1-2 @ 83
