I have the Edge Juice WAM on my 06,
I run the alert set @ 40 and the boost limit set @ 38, been this way for over 15k miles.
Anything over 38 lbs of boost and the turbo will start generating it's own heat.
BTW I run most of the time on level 3, the trans seems just fine.

Same with me. I set mine on 3-3 and the boost alarm at 40 and it still goes off at WOT. I'm pretty ez on it now but tranny upgrades are next, until then.... 
btw -> The turbo on a '06 is a HE351

I don't think I'm quite ready to take the plunge on tranny upgrades. They'll come someday, but not now.

Mebbe. It SOUNDS like you don't need one. If you're already making 36psi of boost, I'd say you certainly don't need to force the wastegate to hold any tighter shut!!

Hey, which Tough country bumper you got? I've been looking at the apache one. Do you like it? Post some pics of that thang... from the sig, I bet it's a hot looking rig. I REALLY MISS my 3rd gen... see pic...
