Question for outlook owners

I have been reading that stock the boost is about 30psi my outlook monitor has never shown me over 18psi is this so it won't throw any codes?
Thanks in advance

The Outlook in my truck runs higher numbers because of the boost elbow from an EZ. With the elbow and nothing else I see 36psi on the Outlook. With the BDDL on Extreme I see 40psi. I have no idea why yours truck is showing such low boost numbers. What does the Outlook show at idle? Try driving up a good grade with the hammer down and see what boost you see then. Good luck.

I max out at 28-29 lbs of boost. If yours is only showing 18 something is wrong

Not necessarily. He could be reading relative boost pressure (where atmospheric pressure is subtracted from the absolute pressure).

You guys at 30-34 are reading absolute pressure (which includes the atmospheric 14.7psi pressure).

If you were truely running half boost, you're truck would barely get out of its own way.

You guys are having problems with your outlooks. Maybe bad connections or grounds.
