Default EGT's

What kind of EGT's are you guys seeing on your turbo set ups and where does the temp start becoming a issue on the LS1. I know on my truck i like to keep them below 1050 and below 1200 when towing at the max but i would expect it to be a little different on a aluminum gas engine.

This is not on a remote system like STS i would expect there temps to be a little lower due to there set up.

i have always been told to keep it under 1600 as 1750 or 1800 is when aluminum starts to melt. i know on alky engines they are around 800 at the end of the track
