So, I was pulling 4200# in my 15,500# MH and I blew one of the intake caps. Of course, I didn't know it at the time.
My EGTs went up over 300 degrees higher than normal (still safe), power was down, and boost was only in the 5-6 psi range.
It made me think about the fellow who was having very high EGTs just going down the highway - maybe his wastegate wasn't working right and letting too much pressure escape, thereby overfueling and running hot.
Just a thought.
