I see from 5 to 5.25 at idle and I have taken mine to 10.5, but I like to keep it around 9.5. It mostly goes up very quickly after 9000rpm's.

I'm at 1000-1200 deg. F on my guage and thats at highway speeds and down right on the gas with boost around 18-20psi.... My probe is location on the DP right after the turbo..... cars not completly tuned either and I may re-locate to the collector on the HKS manifold

I tapped into the exhaust housing of the turbine, closer the better.

Same here. Mine runs at 5 to 5.5 as well. A/F is appx. 13.7~ Goes up to 900c in 3rd gear at 8k rpms, but I'm only tuned to .70 kilos boost
