Trey if you dont mind me asking what are you seeing for peak boost levels?? Im just trying to compare it to my truck where it seems as though we are at the same boost level on the highway and could possibly be having the same issues.

I have peaked at 15lbs of boost, but that is nearly WOT with a trailer on a 6% grade with 1100* EGTs.
