Turbomaster questions - will it help me?

As you can all see from my truck description I'm not quite stock. Do you think the turbo master will help me at all since I've already got a boost elbow that is delivering around 30-35 psi?
I don't know that I need much more boost, but I sure wish it built up faster...
My biggest problems right now is are a HUGE lag at any speed under 50 (or any time the t/c isn't locked up) and my egt's are hitting 1100 when I floor it up a hill. I plan on getting the Scotty soon, but for right now....

The TurboMaster won't change how fast your turbo spools. You can adjust it for more boost, assuming you have enough fuel to make more boost. The main benefit is that it's easily adjustable.

If your pyro probe is pre turbo, then I wouldn't worry bout EGT's at all.

I would think any more than ~35lbs of boost on that stock turbo would not be to bueno , but then again Im not too sure :.

I used to push 37 out of mine all the time. Decided it probably wasn't worth the risk, so I backed it down to 30. Even saw 40 for a second at one point.
