Default Building Up !!!!!

I appreciate the help I got earlier, so I was hoping I could get more inputs. My boyfriend has a 98 Dodge Ram 2500 cummins 4x4 quad cab 12v. He has Ats valve body, recontor converter, 191 delivery valves, #8 fuel plate, time advanced to 16.5 degrees, high tech 62 14 turbo, 2 five inch smoke stacks, 3 inch lift, custom track bars, Knn cold air intake, and dyno out at 350 hp and 700 ft-lbs seems to works good but EGT creeps up to 1500 degrees any in puts to make this truck better!!

a larger turbo is the first place I'd start, that 62 won't cool long at those numbers. NOS is an option or water injection

Triton,
Ok, but if I go larger on the turbo than I loose my towing ability? Spring time doing twin turbos and water injections and nos. Any recommendations on a set of twins?

a 64 shouldnt surge on you while towing. . .I know a 66 will.

twins on a 12 valve is a rather large undertaking. . .it takes a good bit of tweaking to get everything dialed in just right to make sure the big turbo lights at the right time to keep EGT's down.

another option may be propane.
