Enough Boost ?

I,m only getting about 18 pounds, is this typical or do I have a problem somewhere? Any ideas? Thanks.

My 92 4x4 with the auto and the 21cm turbo housing will only boost 19/21 under a big load full throttle. The 93 with the 5sp and the 18.5cm turbo housing will boost 34/36. So your probably not far off on your boost. Check your hump hoses, connections, and the i/c. You may have a leak that's losing a lil of your boost pressure.
