Spartan General Econ boost numbers

If i remember correctly, Matt turned the boost down to the low 20's on the gen econ tune. What are you guys seeing boost wise when you are at wot with your general econ? I hit 29 today. Just wondering what everyone else is seeing

i can't remember exactly but i think my truck is boosting similar to yours with that tune. i don't go WOT much but accelerating up a slight hill around 50mph my boost can be 20-25 psi and thats only 1/2 throttle.

Reason i am asking is because i have been doing a ton and i mean ton of around town driving lately and if the boost is suspose to stay in the low 20's and i saw 29 that maybe i could have some sticking turbo vanes. Just playing detective

I hammered it on a decent uphill and hit 31 psi briefly with the GE tune. I really had to get into it to see that boost though, usually I see 10-12 max for the way I drive.

That was the intent with that launch i made at the redlight just trying to clean her out. Abomb, i got the tune a week before christmas. I really like it. Yeah the hybrid is really fun, but i am scared i am gonna break something when i dont need it to break. The GE fits my driving style perfect

Nope. As soon as it was approaching 30 i got out of the throttle. As far as i know, i am a long way from a mod friendly dealer like the one back home

My heads both lifted at about 35-36. The truck was running so strong I didn't even take my foot out of it (mistake).Stretch her legs and hope for the best.
