15k is too low. I lose power below 20k.
Your still missing it. Box's don't "increase boost"....they dump in more fuel. Can't have more boost without more fuel. The SP fuels/fools harder at low RPMS that the Quad. It is more like the MP-8.
Anyways...I am not giving you a hard time. I am glad to see you are finally fueling that truck HARD and expereincing some real life challenges. You still have a ways to go...if your only able to get that "small" turbo to 1275 degrees.
Get on a load dyno, run a 1/4, or drag a sled. Either the HP or Performance won't meet expectations...or you will see more realistic exhaust temps.
Back to topic....keep rpms up to avoid surge. That is the key.

SP like the MP8? my SP is a boost fooler ONLY, no added pressure.
watching better today i never pull my rail below 21-22k
now with water/meth, i can't get past 1200*
I know enough is never enough....
but i have other things in life going on....truck stuff needs to slow down a bit. Hope i don't drop thousands more into this thing anytime soon.
