Boost Presure??

Just installed my Evolution and was wondering what the normal boost presure should be for normal diving with stock settings, from idle to about 2200 rpm under load and no load? Thanks.

Under a no load condition without some acceleration you'll see very little boost. Climbing a hill and accelerating you'll see maybe 15psi. Under hard acceleration you should see 20psi or maybe more. With programming to change fueling parameters you'll see a bit more but '03-'04 trucks were limited to around 26-30psi IIRC.

With a 62/65 upgrade and Flux II's with programming I can hit 35psi instantly.....that's where I set my wastegate at.
