I just finished installing dual cp3's. Loaded smarty on 9. It's regular revo, no tnt. From 60-120 wot pull egts maxed out at 1175 which seems kind of low. It stayed right at 53-55 psi up to 3400 rpm where I lifted. At idle in gear it is at 450 and about 650 degrees at 65 mph. My concern is my egt gauge is reading low. I thought it would be at 1400 or more. Maybe I need more fuel. I'm interested to see what others are seeing for temps.
 
It will smoke pretty good from a dead stop. When it's moving not much at all. It has plenty of power.
 
Either you have your probe in the wrong spot or the gauge is reading low! Try a new probe first.
 
My twin turbo 03 is around 1200 wot cruse 700-800. I have 3 egt probes on my truck one for a piller gauge, one for my gt monitor and one in my down pipe so I know all mine read correctly.
 
My brother has the same exact setup except with efilive on his 06 and those are the same egt temps we see with his
