Hot Dam Boost Pressure

[Hoosierdiesel]

Hey this may be a Newb question but I am just trying to get some good info. I am running the Black Maxx with the Hot Dam files. I have the flo pro 5in exhaust with stock downpipe and S&B Intake. I am running the Hot tune with the "45" lock up. The converter never locks up until 50mph but thats beside the point. Anyways, my max boost pressure I have seen so far is 35psi, I have done about 4-5 full throttle runs from a stop or a slow roll and thats the best I have seen. Is this normal or does it seem a little low? I realize that boost is just a measurement of pressure and if for some reason mine just flows more air than normal (which I highly doubt). What is everyone else seeing for max psi with the hot tune (hot dam file)? When going full throttle the converter doesnt lock up until 60+mph but does the lower lockup speed play a roll in building boost? I'm thinking it may. Any comments??

yea, mine bout the same. minimax,4in all the way back, sfe airfilter. i set my lockup at 50 however it locks at 60. boost is bout the same. i was told just set lockup where u want it. if u set at 40 and it locks at 50, and 50 is what u want, leave it.

I have hit 48 psi with the hot Damn. My lookup is 45 and it is spot on. If it locks, then I roll into it, the boost will hit 48. Hope this helps.

the most I've seen on my hot damn tune is 54psi.

i'm not real sure on the H&S, but on my spartan i have hit 55 psi. i'm assuming it should be about the same.
