I was just wondering if I should be seeing boost while Im on keydiver's studderbox around 5k rpm. I think Im around -5mmHg vac /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif I know it's a revlimiter, not anti-lag, but is that normal?
 

Im seeing around 4-5psi on my boost gauge...launch controlset at 5k rpm as well.

I wouldn't worry about it, being that you don't have antilag. The important thing would be that at 5000 rpm, you're flowing enough gas to spool right up when the motor is put under load. Every setup is going to be different.

The smaller the turbo the more boost you will see.

No, actually I wasn't at WOT when I looked at my boost gauge. I suppose that could effect it. Im on the 14b for what it's worth.

Put it to the floor and let it bounce for a few seconds, it should make boost on a 14b easily.

The thought of doing that scares me, but ok /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

I guess I've gotta do it sooner or later. Some smack talking GTi wants a piece /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif

i was making about 10psi on the box with the evo3, but I think my clutchwire is screwed up because it stopped working. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/banghead.gif
 

I make 8 psi on my small 16G at 5k, if that help anyone. I will know what it makes on a 14b this weekend.
