What happens if EGTs get to high?

If the turbo doesn’t go first, excessive EGT, if sustained, will damage the pistons. Such damage can include piston deformation, melting, burning, holes, cracking, etc. Excessive EGT can also cause exhaust manifold and cylinder head cracking. Exhaust valves can fail from high EGT as well.

Will a bigger exhaust lower EGT?

It lowers EGT’s because it allows the turbo to breathe better which helps get more of the exhaust gasses out. It’s better flowing. It’s important to keep egt’s cool cause if you don’t then you run the risk of melting a piston and damaging the motor.
