At about 70mph im at 900' F pre turbo. I think my rpm's are around 1800rpm. Cause im still running stock 3.73 gears on 38" tires. If i regeared my truck to around 4.56. Thats supposed to get it close to stock power curve. Will that bring down my EGT's a little?

I'm almost identical to you, 8" lift, 38" tires 3.73 gears, and I hover aroud 850-900 for egt cruising down the freeway, which easily climbs to 1300 when I get on hard.

I would think new gears would help bring it down a little, as the engine won't have to work as hard to keep the truck rolling down the road
