Make sure the gov. arm isn't going under the plate. Had to adjust mine when we put in the 11 plate for the first time. Before adjustment it was around 18-20, then the most it ever made was 30. I carved my stock plate to look like a 1/4 pipe and it makes 40 psi now and SOPometer says another 30-50 hp.

Make sure if your using a boost elbow that its not the adjustable one. You might have it adjusted down.
