what gear are you doing this full boost of 15lbs at 3500rpm?

i only asked which gear cuz you can typically spool turbos faster at higher gears..... and i always get confused by people saying it boost to certain boost levels at certain rpms.....
like my twins, i could spool it up to full boost at 2300rpm, but that would be in 5th gear... lol

I ran the 35/40 for over a year and got tired of it. Yea I put down 430 @ 16 psi and 470 @ 20psi but the timing was too advanced in my opinion. At the time the ports I had which were supposed to be huge, were garbage. After properly porting the motor and getting tuned by Steve, I never had a chance to dyno again. Something is messed up with the turbo. Steve thinks its the compressor map or something. It would make 15psi by 3500 rpm, but wouldn't pull hard till 6000. By 7500 power was falling off. Its good for the street, but I am looking for something more. All it took is a ride in a properly set up 60-1 car to convice me to sell the garrett.
