Before filter, 10# indicated at WOT; after filter, off scale 12-13# at WOT. Remember that these guages aren't accurate, or consistant from vehicle to vehicle.

Snuglid, Bedrug, PSP filter, window tint (limo back, 70% sides).

 

Since about 2k miles I consistently get 10lb of boost at WOT. On cold mornings (60 or cooler) The gauge pegs well past 10 (~12).

i've been gettin consistent 10+lbs and svt said that 8lbs was what they said u would get however individual trucks could see upwards of 10lbs. and if anyone else experienced this

 

The Black one gets over 10 # and the wrecked red one was about the same. By the factory gauge.

10+ for me stock!

 

I've always seen 10+ on the factory gauge. Installed another gauge and it also is reading about 11.5-12 at WOT.

Yep, my factory gauge goes way out past 10 on WOT runs. It never stops climbing, so I wonder if with just a few more RPMs i could push it into the black background area that the gauge mounts in!

 

Bone stock at 5000 ft., I max pegged exactly at 8 pounds WOT-just what Fomoco said. Put on Down's filter kit and am getting a skootch over 9 lbs. Looking at the posts, either the altitude is affecting boost, stock gauges are extremely inconsistant, or SC is inconsistant. (I suspect the instruments or sending units). More replies please (Please no embellishments

Have you ever seen an Angel riding a Lightning bolt~

 

Mine has hit 10 since day one also. That is the factory gauge.

 

I got past 10 from day one right out of the box,but I don't put much weight on that. The gauges seem to different from truck to truck.Then again I do have a black one,you know the fastest of 4 colors! Easy guys/gals I'm joking,I'm joking...Or am I?
