Default Reading EGT

What exhaust gas temps are you guys running at with your FI? I started this thread over on another forum and it turned into a debate on where your probe should be. So how about what your EGTs are at idel, cruise and WOT, what FI set up and where you have your probe.

idle = 600-700F
crusing = 900-1000F
WOT = 1200-1300F

My probe is located a couple inches away from the turbo on the downpipe

At idle, not sure
Cruising at 70-80mph=1200
Wot= I've seen it as high as 1350.
Mines located in the exhaust test pipe right next to the exhaust manifold.
