I was wondering How much of boost to you use while accelerating? And what kind of milage you get..

I use around 10-12 #s of boost and I get 14.5-16 mpg and never go over 70 mph

 

That seems about right. That is the number that I see most of the time. The mileage seems about the same as I see too. Right now if I go over 12psi I get the "shudder" out of my tranny. I need to order a tranny. Now, before ya'all try to convince me to get a certain tranny, my mind (yes, mind) is made up. All I need to do is get better so I can do the work myself.

 

DTT/ATS what? I use maybe 2 psi accelerating. The comp really helps. ;D

 

SHHHHHHHHH It's a secret just don't tell anyone else. DTT ;D ;D

 

I don't think I could really say. Going down the highway at 70-75 it varies between 2-10, 10 for a hill. Accelerating from a stop normaly only 2-3. Mileage is in the 14-16 range.

 

Runing 65 around 8 to 10 psi and i get 19 on long highway trips. In town boost ranges anywhere from 10 to 30 psi depending on the weight of your foot mine is heavy and get about 16mpg.

 

peter puttin around town, I hardly ever see more than 2-3, running down the highway at 70 mph, I may see 4-6 on level ground, and about 9-10 up a slight hill. I installed a set of pods last Saturday, and coming home from a job out of town on Monday I got stuck in traffic on I-65 north, tanker had a 4 wheeler run up under it, and it and 2 cars exploded, 3 dead and a 40 mile detour, but back to the subject, I got stuck behind 3 cars on a "pig trail" back road and found a stretch that was about 200 yards long and flat, pulled out to pass, nailed it, and the first car I passed could NOT BE SEEN for the smoke, passed the second, still winding out 3rd, it bumped the gov at 28-2900 rpm, now there is a car coming at me it shifted into 4th at about 74-75 mph, and the it felt like my truck was shot out of a cannon, 30 psi boost, 1350-1400*, but before I knew it, I was at 95 mph and looking at a turn in the pig trail (us-31). What I want to know, is there any way to take AWAY the hazing that the pods produce at low rpm, the kick in the pants is nice, but NOT at those speeds. 1350-1400* is also WAY to high. I still have not fueled up as the trip was only 290 miles, but showing 3/8 of a tank on the "guage", I might fuel in the morning to just see waht mpg was.

 

Um, usually about 2-10PSI accelerating, and about 80-100 PSI when really honkerin down on it.

I was hitting about 80-90PSI at 143MPH when I was pacing a 2003 Z06 a few weeks ago.
