5 to 7 PSI at wot is fine. Should have 14-15 at idle. If your max egt is 650 then I'm guessing your probe isn't in the exaust manifold. Watch out, that is a false reading. You should add about 350 for pre turbo readings. I suggest you drill and tap your manifold and put your sensor there. Buy a fuel pressure gauge and check it every oil change or put one in the cab. Lift pumps are $160 from Cummins and can be changed in about 20 min with a little practice. I always carry a spare.

Have fun,

it is noticeable better throttle response, turbo spools up quicker and sounds awesome...

I have 4" exhuast also I got better MPG and the turbo spooled up much faster. It added about 30hp according to dyno sheet.

My pyro runs about 530- 640 under normal running when I turn the fuel up to 63% over stock if will reach 1150+ for a second then the box defuels till it's under 1100.

Really? Did the dyno operator sell the exaust to you?
