Normal EGT readings? Experienced informative post only please!
Ok, what should be normal readings on my EGT? I am currently assembling my h22, and it should be running within the next 2 weeks, depending on a few variables, but I want to get a feel of what I will be seeing as far as exhaust gas temperature. What temperatures are you guys seeing during heavy acceleration, part throttle, idle, etc. And at what boost levels, timing, etc. My gauges are greddy and are in celsius, so be sure to include whether it is in Fahrenheit or Celsius. Thanks.

I run 1150 EGT's at 10 psi on my Mazda KLO3 motor.. Has nothing to do with your H series, but you get an idea what EGTs pull on a 10psi motor..

B18C1 2.0 liter built GE block, 9:1 JE pistons, XS Engineering IC and JG Edelbrock mani, timing is 16 degrees advanced, Hondata 4b, NGK BKR7E11's.
Greddy Gauges in Celsius:
Under 1 BAR boosting, 3rd gear redline pulls through 5th on the highway starts to climb to 800
80mph highway cruising is about 700 or so. In the city it stays at 600 or so.
If I sit long enough, it drops under 400 idling....I wanna say 300.

800 F at idle (after warm up ). Around 1125 F cruising around. 1400 F at boost. This is on a 97 Prelude.

That's kind of hot there. You should try to keep it around and below 800*F
