What's normal???? What's high???? What's low???? I'm just curious my truck runs around 200 driving around never seen it go above more than a few seconds when I've gotten on it.

200 seems low. mines around 4-600 normal driving, ive never seen mine above 900. 1200 is too hot.

where is your probe drilled into the exhaust? mines on the down pipe so its probably 100 degrees off.

Mine runs an avg of 6-800...can easily climb to 12-1300 which is where I start backing out. But it all in how long you hold it there. Guys pulling sleds ect. hit 1600 in a heart beat and hold it the full pull...

Well i took pictures on Saturday night and moved the wires around a little bit. I went for a little drive today just to go pick up my son from school 2 blacks away and its working now it moved up and down with acceleration and deceleration so IDK whats up its never really moved since I bought the truck but me fiddling with it did something I guess. anyway the pic of my gauges i was at a stop for a minute or two and my probe is in my down pipe???? i guess right by my turbo

Yeah, that's where it should be... Accordin to my install instructions at least. I put mine farther down cause ingot lazy, figured it wouldn't be a big deal but it's a little off. Not enoughto matter at this point.

So freeway speeds around 75 mph I read between 700-800 so if I add 100 to that because of my location I'm running800-900

I know it's a Duramax... But Im seeing 500-700 daily driving. And 1200 Max at WOT. The WOT numbers are very low for a truck like mine but Ive spent alot of money getting parts that help EGT's for towing. Average for a Duramax at WOT with mods for racing is 1500 degrees in the 1/4. My probe is drilled and tapped in th BD drivers exhaust manifold.
Good to see the Ford's aren't much different... But 200 degrees seems really low. That's what I am at idle.

I haven't broken 1000 degrees yet, according to my black maxx, but the only thing I've hauled is my 1200lb ATV.
I'm usually around 700 @ 75 MPH... Using the factory pyro right now, so wherever that's located...

Lol I have hit 1650 on the 1/4 in Vegas. Cruising it's 8-900. But I am at 7400 feet and I find my toe tunes runs a lot cooler. Doing the summit (5% upgrade and a 1300 foot elevation climb in a few miles) and I hit 1100 tops at 80 mph.
