with an NA motor EGT's dont get very high, even with black smoke, the restriction that the turbo creates makes the EGT's a problemmy motor(NA with an EGT Gauge) will only reach 1000*F on a long pull blowing black smokenow, saying that, and EGT gauge is a good thing to have, and I recommend it to all diesel owners.

With my NA I can hit 1150F pretty easy, that's with a 2.5" exhaust and a sorta lame intake system.
i would rather have a turbo on there to clean up the smoke. thats just wasted power out the tail pipe.

Wasted power out the tail-pipe looks cool though An n/a with a good intake, exhaust and turned up fuel shouldn't have too much problem, as was stated before the turbo being a massive restriction is what causes alot rising EGT's. SMOKIN N/A'S RULZ TEH WROLDZ Also who is going for efficiency out of an N/A? there the best engines to mess with, because at the end of the day.. its still just an N/A engine lol
