(Thread Starter) |   Not Ranked : 0 score  Is this normal? I installed my Prosport BC(by BC i mean BG....) a while back and had a quick question on the numbers I am seeing. In 3 gear or higher, it spikes to 20 and then settles a little higher than 15psi. Should it be spiking that high? Its not holding that high at all, just a quick spike. The only mods I have so far is a Cobb SRI. Just making sure this is normal before I order a MBC and make my MAP clamp. Last edited by SgtP; 04-09-2008 at 07:49 PM. Reason: BC was supposed to be BG |

(Thread Starter) | Not Ranked : 0 score I have neither but I didn't expect to need them just running an intake. I have not experiencing any boost cut at all, just some spikes to 20 that I got worried about. |

(Thread Starter) | Not Ranked : 0 score Do you think its an actual spike or a lack of accuracy in the gauge. I wonder what I would see if I bought the STRI or DEFI gauge. |

| Spike is common, esp with a MBC. What are you currently using to monitor the boost?

(Thread Starter) | Not Ranked : 0 score makes me feel better now. Its just barely hitting 20. I have the warning set at a little over 20 and it hasn't gone off yet. Can't wait to get my MBC and make my clamp. I want it now but I might get my TBE first. probably makes more sense. |
