When I first bought the truck I could get maybe 24ish on stock tuning. With my SCT and extreme street or race, I've maxed my 35 lb gauge a few times, but mostly it would max at 34psi.

I'm running it stock now and I've hit 30psi a couple times stock, and I've never been able to do that before, but the last time it was in it got a new up-pipe because the old one was cracked I guess.

So each tuner has it's own limit to what boost it will give the turbo?
