Default EGT question on 02 Cummins

I have an 02 Dodge 2500 4X4. I have put a Quadzilla programer and 100hp injector tips. I do not think I am able to reach the full potential of this chip. Will a larger turbo, 4" exaust and new intercooler lower my EGT's?

might wanna think about beefing up that transmission and torque converter first, if you haven't already.

I have already replaced the clutch, with a much stronger one.

Yea. Flowing more air will lower your egt's. It will also help you use all the fuel your dumping into it creating more power.

i agree turbo and other power upgrades comes after you upgrade the things that support the power your gonna put to them.exhaust and intake it fine. its kinda like wipping your butt before you take a crap dont make sence. make sure you have the gear to support the power....my .02 cents mine is a 2001 6 speed i nuked it with the quadzillea ADR. blew 3 and 4 gear under normal driving with a little quick shifts now and then
