ya 35 to 40 then the map goes out the window then you just making hot air
you need a bigger waste gate can
if you want real power go compound turbo
just hope you have already upgraded the trans assemble

+1 an automatic trans is the limit to boost level unless its built

the trans was modified , what i remember is they did change an input shaft and some other stuff and it cost almost 13 000 just in the trans , what i can tell the truck pull very good this year , need a bit more traction and some more power
