PS: I still count my blessings for not flipping my car at my first PDX...
EGTs can be managed through tune, and overall heat management through simple mods. Besides, given the miles you've put on your car and the way you've pushed it, those temps were obviously not beyond what's acceptable given that you've never had an internal engine issue.
