I have been running a Pheonix chip on my truck for a while now.
Just last month I was climbing Steven's pass in the truck using stock tune. EGT was 1000. I then switched to the 25 HP tow tune. EGT dropped to 850 and that was on a steeper portion of the grade. I use this truck to pull a 14k lb 5th wheel camper. The best tune to use for EGT control (IMO) is the 25hp tune. You get a little more power than stock tuning, and the EGT drops down by quite a bit. The other positions on the chip are for more HP. The 45hp tune gives a lot more power but the EGT pushes 1200 if I let it. It's only good for short hills. The 80hp tune is NOT for towing.
