Gauge Question
Having installed a pyro and boost gauge, I was curious about the numbers I have found.
After the install, I took a test drive to make sure nothing fell off.
The pyro sahowed around 600 degrees @ 70 and the boost was about .
IS this about right?

I would say that is pretty typical. Pretty much in line with my readings.

with pre turbo i read around 600* on the highway between 55 and 70. Boost sits right at 10psi.
I've seen my boost shoot above 30psi if I gun it pass someone our get ahead, this normal? Has anyone else seen anything like this.

At 70, my pyro is at or under 600, depending on road level (flat or incline).
My boost is right around 6-8psi at 70mph, depending on road.
If I floor it, I hit 40psi boost ... All of this is with my bed loaded with
about 1/2ton of tools, etc.

My truck runs between 500 & 600 pre-turbo on level ground between 60 & 70 mph. Boost stays between 6 & 10 psi. My boost will shoot up to 40 psi if I punch it also , but then the wastegate kicks in, and it levels off in the lower 30's.
