Default How much boost are you making?

How much boost are you making at the different rpm's, idle, 1500, 2000 and 3000 or better.

That will vary depending on the load and mods... No one should be making any boost at idle, unless you have a procharger installed.

My peak boost at sea level is 52psi...Here in Santa Fe I cant get above 40psi and its a smoky SOB.

Thats what I was wondering, I saw a video you posted for boost help of compressor surge and it looked like you returned to an idle for a few seconds but held 2 or 3lbs.
