I have the gauge temp in and done some driving.



Stock sequential turbos:

With k&n air filter in stock box plus modified, DP and a ported wastegate here is the boost behavior.



1st gear WOT = 11PSI

2nd gear from a 2.5 RPM roll WOT = 11PSI

3rd from 35mph then WOT = 11PSI



Its a little hard to see the transition because of having to watch the road, but these are all the way to redline.



Now crusing on the interstate at 60, 70, and 80 MPH in 3rd and 4th gear and firmly giving it gas it goes to 12.5.



This is the only time it will go to 12.5





Any opinions?





Thanks....Scott

Sounds really healthy. my DEFI read 13 PSI on occasion.. now, with a DP and CB, I saw 15PSI once.. lucky me, I didn't blow the motor.. never again will I floor it in fifth gear.



Why do you think something is wrong?

if you want to lower it a tad you should take the pills out of the wastegate and precontrol lines and make them a little bigger

...or install home depot boost and prespool controllers. Very cheap and easy...
