Exhaust gas temperature and towing
My 2004 Ram has 325 horse and 600 ft-lb of torque. I find myself bumping 1,300 degrees of EGT before I max my power capability. I like to keep it below 1,300 so I slow down as I have already geared ...

I have a Banks Bullet tuner with the optional EGT probe, and run in stock mode 99% of the time. I actually had the alarm go off when =not= towing, pulling up the grade outside of Superior on the way to Globe. Surprised hell out of me, for sure. Threshold is 1150, IIRC, which is stock for the '02 D'max. I've only had it pop 1 other time, while towing, and in T/H mode on the Bullet. Hot day, pulling up the Black Canyon grade N of Phoenix and pushing things a bit. Backed down a bit and it went right out.
