What RPM should full boost be at w/ a 6psi Powerdyne?
It's only seeing 5psi at ~4800rpm and it creeps up to that from low rpm.

Thanks

if its rated at 6psi, its most likely you won't see it at this elevation.

hmmm. what regulates the boost on a SCer? just the gear/pullie ratio?

'cuz a turbo makes 6psi relative to atmospheric pressure so the guage will always be the same as the wastegate setting.

you could change the pulley to make more boost.

ok, you it's normal.
I have not redlined it yet, but when I do I'll be looking for 6psi.

Thanks ppl.
