7 PSI on comptech

jeremy0203 · 04-13-2008, 10:01 PM

well i was coming back from the good ol zoo today and decided to do a lil spirited driving getting on the highway. checked my boost gauge afterwards and i was boosting 7 #'s ?!?!?!? i know elevation and weather conditions have an effect on boost but damn i didnt think id be doin 7 on the 4-5 psi pulley. im bored just thought i would share with everyone.

On turbo if you're going up hill the torque hits at a way lower rpm and so does full boost. Maybe it's something remotely similar? Boost spike? SHRUG**

Perhaps boost gauge inaccuracy? Did it feel much stronger?

yea it did

I was very nice weather today too...kinda odd. Normally if it's cooler outside, I'll have a little boost creep, but today wasn't chilly at all.

More power to ya! I'm amazed that I have never seen you on the road. I've seen the Habi one a few times and I used to see your car parked at Lowe's, but that's it.

In between Gross Rd and 95? I rarely travel outside of that area, unless I'm heading to Walmart.
