i'm not really worried about it, it just makes me wish i could say i had more boost. i am happy with the performance and towing capabilities of the truck, it has no issues and is very reliable. it just runs low boost for the power it makes
you can see the speedo moveing in my video of the 14.7 with a chip, thats on a slight upgrade turning 35's, she moves pretty dam good i think

Joe- no one has brought this up but have you checked your tube for the boost gauge for any kinks? My '97 5-spd with only a 6637 and full exhaust will hit 22psi wot then drop immediately when i shift to about 15 then start climbing again

farm, thats what puzzles me, you have identical numbers as i do, yet you have a "stock engine" i have a chip, more fuel, more oil and no more boost.
97 powerstroke, your numbers are identical to mine, my norm is 8 after shifts climbing with rpm to 16, if i really wind it up to the limiter it will hit 20
cowboy, no kinks
