34 PSI is usually the magic number for the wastegate. If you don't have a wastegate, then I would ask what valve springs you have.

You are on the verge for the OEM fuel pump, if you still have it.

I saw your Buck$Zooka ammo.

34 PSI bothers me (36 PSI backpressure). I have 160/100s with a 38R, and that's my peak - but I set my wastegate to do that to protect my old springs.

I set my boost gauge (upper right) to alarm when I reach 34 PSI.

8 seconds - YouTube
so boost = back psi? i new it was close but wasnt sure so 36 psi back psi is bad past that? i wanted to get a waste gate but the budget and and dead line i had it didnt happen maby some day tho

anything else i could do?
so my valve springs aint good enough? yes im being serious i was always lost at back psi but read up on 180/100 feedin a s366 was enought but 238/100 was too big reason for not goin with 238/100

Don't panic, I'm the Negative Nancy here - others need to chime in. I'm just rattling through my head, looking for a root cause of 34 PSI boost cutoff.

As for nearly 1:1 boost/EBP, that's with my 38R. I'm on the iPhony, so I'm not sure what intake you have .

6637? In the immortal (and gravelly) words of Mythbusters: "There's your problem."

I had the AIS (I really loved it, too), and it wasn't enough. I had to bump up to the S&B to get enough air in there for the bigger sticks.

Pictures are great, keep them come in. So you did or didn't use the 910 valve springs? What did Matt tell you to use?

Boost fooler - yes, but not for the tuning. When we get that high on boost, we're maxing out the MAP sensor. If you are monitoring the boost with a scan gauge, there's your explanation. Don't ask my why it took me a day to sort that out.

Oh yeah... I was distracted.

As for the Milwaukee Fuel - I've used a lot of cordless tools, but these are the real deal.
