I snapped this picture of my EGTs while pulling this weekend. The truck is a Chevy 2021 L5P Duramax.
This is the sequence of sensors:
Manifold => EGT => Turbo => EGT1 => DOC => EGT2 => SCR => EGT3 => EGT4 => DPF => EGT 1/5
The EGT of the stream almost always loses 200+ degrees while passing through the turbo. I have seen a temperature drop of That's part of the reason passive regens don't work on these trucks. The EGTs are way too low to burn off soot after expanding and cooling at the turbo. Soot burns off at about 1100°F and the DPF inlet pulling is 622°F, which is way to cool to burn soot.
This is the same screen, except during a regen. GM adds fuel in the combustion chamber and at least one place in the exhaust stream, presumably before EGT2, which is the just before the SCR.
