Boost Gauge Pegged Today

[icanfixall]

Needed to drive the rig a little harder than what I usually do and watched the bost gauge climbing nicely. Was just under 10 lbs and wondered what it would stop boosting at. So I added more skinny peddle and watched it peg the 15 lb gauge and tried to go even further up in pressure... Now I wonder if my boost gauge is telling me the truth. I have never been able to peg 15 lbs with any Moose pumps yet. Truck did seem to me running on 2 more cylinders instead of the usual 8 cylinders...

Mine will do better than my 15psi gauge too. Still smoking too if its below 3k rpm . I DO NOT make a habit of this. Stock-ish E4OD ai't gonna hold that for too long. Even studded, if I can't get it moving with 12psi and keep it moving with 5-8, it's too heavy or I need to shift

something wrong with the wastegate?

The 88 with a junoir would hit 15 and blaze the egt's easy.
I bet a comparo of different pyro's with different thermocouples swapped around would be interesting.
Even same setups as supplies from maker on same truck.

Wife probably pulled the training block of wood out from under the skinny pedal

Just when I was happy that my truck hit 14 with stock head bolts and a messed up compressor wheel. But when it's 10*F outside it sure will cram the air in.
