Well I can't exactly take it off and monitor my boost numbers......all I have are the digital gauges on the Edge. But I did take the chip off about 20 minutes ago and took it for a drive and listened to the pitch of the whistle to see if I could tell a difference........and I couldn't tell a difference in the sound. With my intake, 30 psi ( or I'm assuming it's 30psi ) makes a very distinct sound and it sounded identical to before when the chip was installed. I know it's not a very accurate way to test it, but right now that's about all I can do.
I pressurized the whole system.....I made up a cap for my '01 about a year ago when I was having problems with it.....so I used that one! It held the pressure no problem.
And yeah I realize the altitude affects it some compared to other trucks.....but still I should be seeing higher than factory boost numbers. My '01 with just a Edge COMP and clamped wastegate would hit 35-36 psi no problem.

I might end up sending mine in for the Hot eventually, so we'll see if that makes a difference once it's flashed.
Thanks again for all the help fellas! I appreciate it....
