Need opinions on my current pump set up

I finally got around to installing gauges, and I havent done anything myself to the engine. I was suprised to see that it will boost to 36 at max throttle. The truck defuels around 2500rpms, so obviously needs some springs. My concern is the fueling. I always thought it was stock, since it never smokes, from a start or punching the pedal, its always clean out the pipe. But its hard to believe when it hits 35psi. Normal driving it only goes to around 15psi, and thats just getting up to speed not in a hurry. My egts preturbo reach 1100 ish max, with 20 or 30 deg. outside temps. So, is this set pretty decent? I was concerned in the summer my temps may reach the limit of 1250. Thanks for the advice on where to go next. I have a bhaf and 4" exhaust.

Hey Mike Welcome to the DTR!
You need to fill in your signature so we know what year truck your talking about.

Sounds like its setup pretty well. Put the springs in and see where it goes. EGT's will probably still be acceptable in the summer time. I notice my temps down when its much colder than that. Around the freezing mark, might see 50 degrees difference from summer time. Thats my experience, anyway.

sounds like my truck. I only see high boost numbers when I race a mustang from the stop lights! Temps are the same as mine too.
