I hit 1680° on a hard pull with all that is in my sig. I don't like it either and I have already done everything discussed here hoping 480 over this 3794 brings them down....
1600 EGTs ?????
- Thread starter cdbright
- Start date
Twins will drop them for sure, unless you keep throwing more fuel at it....lil, I was hitting 1760 on dyno in my twin days... But my tow tune was under 1200 pulling a heavy tow up a long grade, loved them twins!
Yeah, I've been trying to get under 2000* for 3 pulling seasons...but it drives a large single turbo well!!! LMFAO!
I am looking at 45s or 60s and duel fuelers but at this point more for the pulse widths I better build a motor before I go throwing more fuel at it I don't want any viewing windows in the block...:rofl:
People "claim" up to 250* egt reduction, although when I had my single 80/96 on my race truck I still saw 1800* with them on the bottle.
I think in certain areas yes they do help, but for max effort shenanigans, they don't.
Bryan knows hell look at him he is an EGT prob...:roflmao: just kidding :hug:
When you leave the line at 1200* and the EGT gauge moves faster than the boost gauge, you know it's going to be a party :rofl:
No, everyone I know who has dynoed with water injection on a Duramax, seen higher cylinder pressures and minimal to no HP increase... My pistons have been throw 3 sets of rings and 4 pulling seasons, still look great....so I don't see a need.
Thats no fun...
i know, but i lie to myself all the time hahahah, did you ever run in the 1600s in your LMM stock pistons?
Could it hurt them and you lose your engine the next time you do it? Sure. I assure you though, there have been a gazillion of them do it for short stints of time, like when racing, and it doesn't hurt them. I really wouldn't worry about that.
I don't remember the fail type being from fatigue? Its been a LONG time since I read up on the LBZ/LMM piston issues though.

Before mine cracked they saw 20-30 passes of 1800* EGT's, several consistent 1500-1600* EGT's while towing up a pass
