Full boost in every gear? HA!!
My brother (who is also a member on here, but I won't tell you his username) is trying to get me to believe he can hit 35psi of boost in EVERY gear, 1st-6th UNLOADED. His truck is a 2006 with the G56. Is anyone gullible enough to believe that? I'm arguing that it's impossible in 1st-3rd gear, and unlikely but plausible in 4th. I can easily believe it for 5th and 6th gear. Can anyone convince me that it is possible to hit full boost in 1st-3rd gear?

I never use 1st gear and dont have a spare second in 2nd gear at WOT to watch my boost gage. But in 3, 4, 5, and 6 I can have that stocker huffing 40psi no problem.
I think unloaded in 1st gear 35psi would be a hard bar to reach but I guess that depends on the truck.
If I stand on the brake and the go pedal in 4x4 I might make it. but dont think il try

Well, his truck is stock except for a Smarty and he keeps it on level 3. Now he's claiming he can make 12psi in neutral. Is this even possible?

NO Boost in neutral ever, that i have seen...
My elbow is set @ 33 psi, I can get that in 3-6 no problem.. Have only used 1st gear a couple times, also like said above "not enough time to look for boost in 2nd gear @WOT".
So your brother is full of BS

The HPCR's can make boost in N due to the very small exhaust housing. I think 5 or 6, thou I have never tried.. I don't like that many rpms without a load.
1-3 I don't think I have ever hit full boost. I know not in 1 or 2.
