Stock Pyro reading

Ive been monitoring my Egts for the last few days on a stock 98 215 pump truck. Pyro is mounted pre turbo. Again this is a stock setup for now. I can hit 900 without a load fairly easy and 1000 if i really try in 4th. Does this sound right? Seems a bit high to me? 5inch is coming this week so i wanted to take some notes stock before the fun begins.

Yep twins ,But not sure when. I am still doing some research and looking over my options. Plus this is a truck i bought to tow farm equipment on a regular basis , so EGTs are a big concern for me.
