installed the gauge on a 2k2 5spd EX...at crusing we are getting 800-1000 degrees and at WOT we get about 1200-1300+ peak! does this sound about right for an N/A 5spd??? only mod is a AEM CAI...NX nitrous is in but not installed....YET!! thanks for any answers!

EGT = Exhaust Gas Temperature

Where is the probe? If it's near the header then that sounds a little hot, but probably correct. If it's near the back then that is way too hot.
