Red face CT7 on Saab340 - cruise power

I was wondering what other companies use for climb and cruise power. We operate a fleet of 340A's and use original performance tables from flight manual (dated somewhere in 1988). As I know, General Electric regularly issues revisions regarding operation and maintenance practices and something must have changed in the last 20 years.
780-800 deg. C in cruise (with engine anti ice off) seems rather low.. and I know that at least one company operate at 830-840' C with the A model.
Any hints?
