Lots of information on this thread already. I cook pizzas pretty regularly and have no problem getting the Joe up to 800* although its not necessary. 650* is plenty.
What I think is the biggest problem for most people wanting to get high temps is the Fire Grate. The fire grate is that cast iron plate that sits in the bottom of the fire box with all of the round holes in it. Those holes get blocked by charcoal and will not let enough air in. So, your options are adding larger chunks in first then smaller pieces on top of that. It's quite a process and messy. OR! Get on Amazon or go to your local grill store and get a KICK ASH BASKET. Once you do that you can your old fire grate in the trash, seriously, once I got my basket I haven't used the fire grate once.
By the way the KICK ASH BASKET (KAB) goes for around $100. I found a "knock off" version on Amazon for 1/3 of the price.
