Holy cow, Ron! That's a LOT of boost!

Running down the highway at 70 I make about 8#s or so. I can easily hit 25#s by sticking my foot into it.

I think Ron put his Egt's instead of boost psi. He ate a lot of cake & ice cream this weekend so maybe the sugar is getting to him!!!!

I imagine the boost gauge exploding out of the pillar mount at around 150#s!

6-8 psi @ 70 mph not towing on flats, 10 psi if towing. I can get about 32 psi at WOT from a stop (I don't do that much).
