Boost Question

What boost PSI is my stock 07 5.9 making at WOT? I'm getting ready to order a set of gauges for the truck. My stock 02 7.3 only needed a 30 PSI gauge, is the 30 enough for the CTD if my only plan is MBRP w/ no kitty and a new intake? Thanks.

You will need a 60psi gauge. You should see low to middle 30s for boost on a stock truck. Also, if you decide to ever do anything - even as simple as adding a boost fooler and not a fueling box - you will want to make sure the gauge covers your potential boost.

You will see 35-40 stock and 40+ with boost fooler or box/programmer. like omaharam said - definately need a 60 psi guage.
