6.0l Boost Pressure
<TABLE width="100%" border=0 itxtvisited="1"><TBODY itxtvisited="1"><TR itxtvisited="1"><TD vAlign=top itxtvisited="1">hey all, new to the diesel game. Purchased a 2006 250 psd. I am wondering how much boost is normal when cruising at 60 mph. I am running about 9psi. No mods to the truck at this point. Thanks

Cruising boost will vary a lot depending on speed, gearing, tire size, throttle position, etc. The main thing you want to look at to see if everything is up to par is your peak boost which should be 25-28 or in that ball park. Also, to get the best mileage try to keep that boost gauge as low as possible.
