I run 38 for a max. Highest I ever saw before timing advance was 50, I was watchin the pyro then glanced at the boost that SOB was climing quickly let off right then. Did like to see that much.

i have hit a whopping 18 with m 1st gen. ive maxed it out at like 20-22 but didnt want to go higher. I've seen 60+ in a stock 04 6.0L Powerstroke but wastegate hated it.

I heard about some guy that could peg a 100psi gauge easy. I think it was supposed to idle in the mid 20's.
Formula:
Twins + Supercharger = Alot of broken parts.
I don't know if it is true or not, but it sure would be fast.

6oh psd's dont have wastegates, try again. I also know several people running big injectors and n2o on 6ohs and none of them are 60+ psi, 50's yes but usually 40-50.

I ONCE saw 40, but have hit 38 a couple times.
I'm in clutch-preservation mode, so I keep it under 20, closer to 15 max.
Smarty's half-power function is pretty useful.

well considering the boost gauge read up to 40 and was pegged past that point, and it was 20 deg out and snowing, it was not on purpose and like i said the engine didnt like it and it wasnt more than a few seconds. not like i was trying to max it out just tryin not to get hit.
