That is good to hear Darin! Shocking to hear you weren't happy with HBJ, that a lot of coin for that thing! Are you able to return it? My ICP is being dragged down to 2000 under FULL throttle in hot tune, other than that it seems to be OK. Oh well it'll have to be Im afraid, would be able to pony up for an adrenaline right now .

Hey Guys,
Slowly working out the bugs on this truck one at a time. Just a quick question on what people are seeing for boost with their stage 2's and S366? I finally got the boost gauge hooked up. A quick 'test hit' empty and I got 39lbs for certain, could have hit 40 but I was trying to keep in straight and couldnt watch. Is this normal? Thanks guys

I also think there is a bit more potential to be had. I know gearhead is well known to be pretty conservative, which i appreciate. But in my race tune, at FULL throttle, there is barely a haze even right off the line. Im no coal roller don't get me wrong, but I feel like in an ALL out tune with 175's, it could probably fuel a little harder than that..?
Also need to adjust pedal sensors and such. Full throttle is 3.9 volts according to AE. Thats leaving ~0.5V on the big end as well.

I don't think you are very far off Andrew. My truck for some reason seems to boost higher than most. Unsure completely why, it just does. Travis said he usually doesn't see over 40lbs with setups like yours.

I don't usually. My Super Duty will hit 43psi with the billet 65 and 160/100s, but I have to be in my TW race tune and in the top end of overdrive to see it. My Gearhead race tune is only around 37-38psi, but I think Matt did that on purpose due to me running stock head bolts.
