More Air

Faster to find it yourself most of the time with less bull from people wondering why you said so many dumb things in one post, (for example)

Maybe a 16" stack will lower your EGT' a little

More air/less fuel. What tuning are you running? 1900* seems pretty extreme. I am running crazy larry and even with the mp8 turned all the way up, I dont see over about 1500*.

That's about what mine were before the turbo swap so I doubt it's the probe... I'm gonna have to agree with you need more air... Everyone has there own prferance to turbos and setups... For a good egt drop on a next to stock truck I recomend the Industrial Injection phatshaft 62 with a PDI exhaust manifold and find a shop that can relash the valves for a quicker spool like West Texas Diesel Power

Figure out your goals first then start to buy parts that will help you achieve your goals

If I went single turbo on a 500-600 dd CR I would run 62/68/13ss it would be warm but would spool up nice.
