yeah, 1200 is the max temp you would want sustainted for a while. You can run 1200 degrees for quite a while actually, but its much safer to just back off throttle a touch.

My 6.0 on the race tune will hit 1500-1600 degrees for a brief moment till its gets full boost, then starts to drop back below 1200.

I wouldnt run 1500 for a standing mile or anything, but for a quick sprint its ok.....or atleast has been for 6 years now! (knock on wood)!!!!
